Course Curriculum & Career Overview
B.E Building Science is a four-year undergraduate degree. Its flexibility enables students to complete a specialised area of study in Project Management or Sustainable Engineering Systems. You may complete both specialisations, or one, along with elective courses closely related to your specialisation.
B.E Building science is the collection of scientific knowledge and experience that focuses on the analysis and control of the physical phenomena affecting buildings and architecture. It traditionally includes the detailed analysis of building materials and building envelope systems. In Europe, building physics is a term used for the knowledge domain that overlaps heavily with building science, and includes fire protection, sound control, and daylighting as well as the heat and moisture concerns that tend to dominate North American building science. The practical purpose of building science is to provide predictive capability to optimize building performance and understand or prevent building failures.
