As a Master of Architectural Engineering student, you will gain an internationally-recognised qualification in the architectural, engineering and structural design of buildings. The degree is highly transferable across industries in different countries. You will be taught by a world-class group of experts drawn from the Melbourne School of Engineering and the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning. Linkages between the study programs will be explored via a dedicated architectural engineering capstone/thesis subject. Students entering with an undergraduate major in architecture will initially complete an eight-subject sequence in Engineering. Students entering with an engineering major will complete an eight-subject sequence in architecture. At the completion of the first year, both groups will commence a shared second-year sequence. All students are granted 100 points of advanced standing (appropriate for their background), and then must complete a further 350 points: 100 points core in the first year, and 250 points in the second and third year, including 25 points Capstone Project. Students entering with an undergraduate major in architecture will initially complete an 8 subject sequence in Engineering (100 points core, pathway for architecture graduates). Students entering from an engineering major will complete an 8 subject sequence in architecture (100 points core pathway for engineering graduates). At the completion of your first year, all students commence a shared second-year sequence. Students who complete the Master of Architectural Engineering will: Be able to address current and future issues that occupy the interdisciplinary space between the two professions. Use a grounding in history, theory and technology to create innovative designs that are relevant to time, place, people and culture Ability to manage professional practice and work within teams Ability to use resources materials and technology in a way that is responsible and sustainable Ability to draw on multi-disciplinary knowledge to show creativity and initiative to new situations in professional practice. High-level personal autonomy and accountability Ability to plan and execute a substantial piece of scholarship. Knowledge Advanced knowledge of the principles of engineering underpinning the provision of infrastructure. Advanced knowledge of design based on architectural history, theory and contemporary practice. Knowledge of current practice contexts, including environmental, technological, regulatory and project-delivery systems. A knowledge of research and design-research methodologies and methods, including empirical and advanced research methods drawn from the sciences and humanities relevant to the disciplines of architecture and civil engineering.
