Architectural Engineering (MS), Building Electrical Systems and Sustainable Energy (Concentration)
Wentworth Institute of Technology
Description
The built environment requires the cooperation of architects, contractors, construction managers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, structural engineers, and civil engineers. The Master of Science in Architectural Engineering gives the experience students need to design and create in this interdisciplinary environment. The program prepares students to contribute to society with sustainable analysis, design, and related activities within the construction industry. Students in the systems focus area learn the engineering fundamentals needed to design quality environments for people, including safe and effective electrical distribution and climate control. Course topics include energy optimization and modeling and simulation, as well as alternative energy and sustainability.
