*Courses must be taken in sequence.
These courses provide students with architectural engineering design content and process skills to prepare them for entry-level employment and post-secondary education in the field of architectural engineering design. Students study architectural design principles; and develop architectural hand-drawing skills, progressing to AutoCAD and Revit, and software applications across the four levels of course work. The first three levels include increasingly complex experiences in the architectural engineering design and development process, the nature and impact of architectural engineering on the environment, the integration of core technologies into the design process, and the applications of architectural engineering in major business and industry enterprises. The 4th course serves as a capstone course and can be substituted for the related Dual Enrollment Course. Effective 2023-2024, the program has been reevaluated and adjusted to be an approved MSDE Program of Study; this distinction allows students to graduate as a CTE Completer option.
