BEng (Hons) Architectural Engineering Bachelor's degree at Roehampton University

The aim of the module is to introduce the foundational principles of statics, dynamics and mathematics for engineering. It explores the different types of stresses that materials undergo and how these materials respond under the influence of such stresses. The module extends its focus to statically determinate structures, and their behaviour under various stress conditions. Additionally, a crucial aspect covered is the concept of structural stability, exploring the factors that contribute to the

Assessment: Students will be assessed through in-class tests and laboratory activities.

This module introduces you to the fundamental principles of construction technology and materials, focusing on their application in low-rise domestic buildings. It covers the mechanical and physical properties of materials, material selection for sustainability, and construction technology from foundations, walls, roofs and floors, together with building services.

This module introduces the principles of architectural composition, design processes and how designers use creative architectural designs with technological, environmental, social and historical contexts. You will develop design strategy for an architectural project by exploring design constraints and factors, aesthetics, space planning and organisation, form, function, and the essential integration between architectural design and construction technology. This module will enable you to learn st

This is the first in a series of Interdisciplinary Design Projects that continue in each year of the programme. The module integrates the skills and knowledge acquired on the programme to date. However, it goes beyond that in terms of integration in as much as you will work within interdisciplinary groups from across the SETEC undergraduate programmes. Further, as the programme gains new cohorts, you will also work with students in 'vertical' cross-cohort disciplinary groups where you are given

This module focuses on integrating digital technologies to enhance the design, construction, and operation of buildings, with a specific emphasis on understanding and reducing embodied carbon, as well as the integration of building services systems, district heat networks, and renewable energy solutions. You will explore core areas such as digital engineering principles, the effective use of BIM MEP tools for project management, and simulation techniques for energy performance and environmental

The module builds upon the knowledge and understanding developed from the level 4 Construction Science, Technology and Materials 1 with a focus on the technology of high-rise frame construction and new methods of construction. You will develop a deeper understanding of contemporary construction technology principles in complex buildings including basements, their future adaptation and refurbishment options. It addresses the superstructure to include types of frames and their different envelope s

In this module, you will develop and justify methods and techniques to prepare detailed design proposals for high-rise commercial buildings. Building on your Level 4 skills, you will extend your knowledge to handle complex projects. You will apply a problem-solving approach to translate concept design into technical details which are required to realise the buildings into built form. You will examine relevant building regulations and legislation, health and safety, and up to date technical and m
