Overview

The evolution of architectural forms is influenced by culture and fashion, society and economics, climate and geography, security and self-preservation.

For architecture to be able to respond to these factors, we need to apply technology.

In the past, technological limitations imposed restrictions on architecture. These days, technology is almost limitless and architectural expression can develop in exciting ways.

Career opportunities

After graduating, your design and technological skills and practical experience can lead to a variety of careers.

The construction industry is becoming better managed and more strategic in its approach, especially in the larger government and civil engineering schemes.

There’s a growing demand for graduate technologists with design skills in the public and private architectural practices, contractors and building component manufacturers.

You could go on to become an Architectural Technologist; Architectural Assistant; Building Information Modelling (BIM) Coordinator; Energy, Fire and Environmental Analyst; Technical Graduate; or Purchasing Coordinator.
