Program Description
Design and build the world around you. Make your mark on history by seeing your ideas take shape as infrastructure, buildings, and building systems. Vermont State University’s Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering Technology program offers exciting and challenging classes on how to plan, shape, and maintain the structures in the world around us. The bachelor’s program builds on the foundation established in the associate program in structural engineering, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and integrated sustainable design. Practical applied learning is offered in the lab and the field. Students test systems, observe construction projects and evaluate infrastructure design.
Graduates of this program are prepared for a wide range of careers working with architects and engineers, including contractors, project managers, or junior engineers.
Graduates are allowed to sit for the Fundamentals of Engineering exam in many states and, after meeting state requirements for appropriate work experience, may also take the Professional Engineer licensing exam.
The program is ABET-ETAC accredited.
Our Architectural Engineering Technology program has received the US Department of Energy Zero Energy Design Designation.
