Extend your expertise in building science and focus on managing the development and ongoing performance of the built environment. Increase your understanding of the connections between architecture, engineering, testing, and building research.
You will explore building construction and performance, project management, how building materials function, new project management tools available on the market, sustainability in the industry, facilities management, and the relationship between buildings and their environment.
Careers: A postgraduate qualification in Architectural Science can open doors to a career in the design and development of our built environment.
