ARCHITECTURAL TECHNOLOGIES

An education in architectural technology typically prepares students to work with architects, construction workers, and other building professionals throughout the structural development process. Educational programs in architectural technology usually result in associate degrees. These programs blend hands-on training in areas such as computer-aided drafting, building codes and methods, building design, and structural systems with classroom instruction. Graduates may also continue their education in related fields like architectural technology, architecture, or construction science in bachelor’s or master’s programs, leading to more advanced careers. Certificate programs are also available. Information about bachelor’s programs in architectural technology can be found on the following pages.
