Architectural Engineering Technology, A.S.

Offered :

  • Randolph, VT

This program is eligible for international students requiring an F-1 visa.


What is an In-Person Plus program?

Program-required courses are taught through a combination of in-person and remote delivery. Remote learning may require meeting at a specific time or may not have a specific class time; all weekly interactions and assignments for remote courses are completed through a learning site.

With an A.S. in Architectural Engineering Technology from Vermont State University, you will learn the technical side of architecture, design, and the construction process for a career in helping to shape our built environment.

You will develop a broad knowledge of the aesthetic design, space planning, materials, methods, heating, cooling, lighting and structural systems of modern construction. You’ll also acquire practical skills in drafting, computer-aided design (CAD), building information modeling (BIM), and team-based design processes.

Upon graduation, you will be ready to enter the field in a wide range of positions working with architects and engineers, contractors, project managers, drafters, and others. Alternatively, you may continue to build your professional skills by continuing directly on to the Vermont State Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering Technology degree or by applying for bachelor’s degree programs at other architecture or engineering universities.

I am here to answer your questions about Vermont State University.
