The Architectural Engineering Technology program at Midlands Technical College emphasizes the fundamentals of architecture: basic design, drafting and sketching, site development, construction methods, contracts, surveying and office practices.
Like all engineering technologies, computers are used extensively, providing students with practical experiences in computer application courses such as AutoCAD. Technical courses include classroom lectures; hands-on opportunities and individual design projects to provide students with the technical skills needed on the job as architectural engineering technicians. Courses in math, technical composition and physics contribute to a well-rounded educational program.
Articulation opportunities may provide qualified high school graduates with advanced placement in the Architectural Engineering Technology program.
