About this program
MSc in Building and Architectural Engineering
The program, entirely offered in English, prepares high-level professionals that can work in the field of the built environment, and in particular of high energy performance, low environmental impact buildings, thanks to a multi-disciplinary training and to the acquisition of specialist engineering skills. The program offers two tracks with specific characteristics:
- Architectural Engineering (offered in Lecco), giving students the ability to manage – and take part in – the integrated design process of complex construction projects;
- Building Engineering (offered in Milano Leonardo), giving students the ability to design, model and predict the physical, mechanical and energy behaviour of complex building components and systems, services and structures.
Building and Architectural Engineering students can also apply for an internal Double Degree with Mechanical Engineering (offered in Lecco), acquiring skills in fields such as digital design and production, robotics, production systems, automation and controls, that are transforming the construction sector and the design and delivery of buildings.
