Engineering Buildings: The Fascinating World of Architectural Engineering

🏢 Architectural engineering involves the study of building structures, mechanical systems, indoor air quality, and lighting distribution.

📚 The breadth of knowledge in architectural engineering is highly valued by employers and there are only a few programs in the country.

🎓 At CU, students can earn a bachelor's degree in architectural engineering and start with foundational math and science courses.

🏗️ Architectural engineering students apply math and science to building design.

📚 Students take specialized courses and participate in a capstone design course.

💼 Graduates have opportunities to join student organizations and work on global projects.

🏢 Architectural engineers have a wide range of job opportunities, including designing and building new buildings, overseeing construction, and working in forensic engineering.

🔍 Forensic engineering is like a CSI for buildings, where engineers investigate failures and provide testimony in court.

🧩 Architectural engineers are problem solvers who specialize in solving building-related problems.
