SLIDE 6 The tectonic group of undergraduate subjects
- BSc Architectural Design and Technology
- BSc Architectural Engineering
- BSc Architecture
- BSc Interior Architecture
SLIDE 7 Common ground(ing)
- Alongside design, all the tectonic courses have a core of
construction, management, structure and environment
- BSc Architecture covers all
- BSc Architectural Engineering has specialist focus on building
engineering – mainly structure and also environment
- BSc Architectural Design & Technology has specialist focus
- n construction, management and communication (BIM)
- BSc Interior Architecture covers all but focus is on the
interior of mainly built, but also designed buildings
SLIDE 8 What attributes do you need to study for a degree in these subjects?
- Imagination and talent
- An interest in cities and places and the people who occupy
them (social engagement)
- A love of buildings (n) and building (v)
- Common sense - an interest in technical and management
matters
- Numeracy (particularly for Architectural Engineering)
- An ability to communicate – writing, drawing, IT
- ….but most of all, enthusiasm!

SLIDE 20 What sets Interior Architecture apart from Interior Design?
- A core of firmess subjects shared with the other ‘tectonic
group’ degrees: construction, structures, services, environment
- Graduates are equipped with applied skills in these areas
- A common courses in the history and theory of design
- A common course in management practice and law
- A focus on the creative reuse of existing buildings
- Employability and ICZ focus
SLIDE 21 What sets Architectural Engineering apart from Architecture?
- A core of firmess subjects shared with the other ‘tectonic
group’ degrees, but with more focus on structural engineering design – the physics of buildings…..........or why you don’t fall through the floor!
- A common design studio
- A common courses in the history and theory of design
- A common course in management practice and law
- Specialist modules on structural design (delivered by the
department of engineering) –Employability and ICZ focus
SLIDE 22 Architectural Design and Technology
- Architectural Technologists have a slightly different
education……..
- ……..and career path
- With its own professional institution the Chartered Institute of
Architectural Technologists
- …….with their own criteria
SLIDE 23 Architectural Design and Technology Criteria
- 1. an awareness of the context, and the political, economic, environmental,
social and technological aspects that inform and influence the practice of Architectural Technology nationally and internationally Design
- 2. an ability to problem solve to realise the design into built form
through the generation of detailed design solutions that respond to familiar and unfamiliar situations
- 3. an ability to successfully complete a sustainable and inclusive design
project, systematic review or systematiccase study, informed by current understandings in the discipline
- 4. an awareness of building elements, components, systems,
and methods used for different building typologies
SLIDE 24 Architectural Design and Technology Criteria
Technology
- 5. an awareness of current topics and practices which inform the discipline of
Architectural Technology including new and emerging technologies

process, construction and contract management Management
- 7. an ability to identify hazards and risks and develop and maintain safe
systems of work and legal and relevant legislation and regulatory frameworks Practice

and engineer in society, in particular in preparing briefs that take account of social factors.
- GC7 Understanding of the methods of investigation and preparation of the
brief for a design project.
- GC8 Understanding of the structural design, constructional and engineering
problems associated with building and interior design.
- GC9 Adequate knowledge of physical problems and technologies and the

- GC10 The necessary architectural and interior design skills to meet building
users’ requirements within the constraints imposed by cost factors and building regulations.
- GC11 Adequate knowledge of the industries, organisations, regulations and
procedures involved in translating design concepts into buildings, interiors, and integrating plans into overall planning.
