Program Overview

Bachelor of Architectural Engineering (BAE)

Architectural Engineering is “the art and science of engineering and construction as practiced in regard to buildings as distinguished from architecture as an art of design”. The program is designed to equip students with skills in building construction engineering and management of building construction projects with the understanding of various building systems and their integration. Students who are interested in working as architects who design buildings and advise in their construction should enroll in the Bachelor of Architecture program

The program goals :

Goal 1: Provide a quality curriculum with synthesis in building construction/construction management, application level in building structures and comprehension level in building mechanical and electrical systems with an awareness of sustainability that will put them on track to leadership in the construction industry.

Goal 2: Commit to social, economic, and environmental issues and practice high ethical standards in the profession.

Goal 3: Prepare the students with knowledge of local needs to enable them to adequately compete within the local and international professional environments.

Goal 4: Provide the community with highly qualified professionals with an awareness of basic concepts of architecture in the context of architectural design and history.
