AREN 1316 - Introduction to Architectural Engineering
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2018 / Fall 2020 / Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023
Surveys the broad subject of architectural engineering and professional practices.

AREN 3080 - Architectural Design Studio 1
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2022 / Spring 2023
Learn about the fundamentals of architectural design and the ways in which it compliments architectural engineering. This introductory studio welcomes students to explore the strategies and techniques through which architects design and communicate. As a studio, the course culminates in a small-scale architecture project through which students will explore and become trained in the architectural design process.
AREN 4080 - Architectural Design Studio 2
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023
Provide an architectural design studio to accompany the integrated capstone design experience for architectural engineering students. In teams, students will build upon their architectural design knowledge to define the architectural program, analyze the site, and produce a schematic level architectural design for a commercial building.
AREN 4317 - Architectural Engineering Design
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2018 / Spring 2021
Provides a capstone experience to AREN students. Students design a modest commercial building and complete an integrated engineering design of the building systems executed for the conceptual, schematic, and design development phases. Students' teams work on structural, mechanical, electrical/lighting, and construction engineering management design. Each stage produce a professional-quality design document. Faculty and industry mentors participate in the teaching and evaluation of designs.

AREN 4319 - Architectural Engineering Design 2
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2022 / Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
Continues the capstone experience for AREN students. Student teams continue their design of a modest commercial building through the Design Development phase with support from faculty and industry mentors. Additionally, topics of professionalism, engineering ethics, and life-long learning are covered.
AREN 4830 - Special Topics for Seniors/Grads
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2018 / Spring 2021
Supervised study of special topics of interest to students under instructor guidance. May be repeated up to 12 total credit hours.
AREN 5660 - Embodied Carbon in Buildings
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2022 / Spring 2024
Introduces students to whole building life cycle assessment (LCA) and embodied carbon in buildings. Topics include LCA methodologies, whole-building LCA tools, materials science of low-carbon and carbon-storing building materials, and strategies for reducing embodied carbon.
AREN 5890 - Sustainable Building Design
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2023
Introduces green building design procedure/approach and provides insight into evolving design principles; explores aspects of building thermal/energy performance, indoor/outdoor environmental quality, occupant comfort and climate relevant to building design (structures not covered); emphasizes both comprehensive understanding and practical applications of sustainable building design strategies; applies prevailing simulation tools to assist green building design. Recommended prerequisite: AREN 3010. Same as AREN 4890.
CVEN 5835 - Special Topics for Seniors/Grads
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2021
Supervised study of special topics of interest to students under instructor guidance. May be repeated up to 15 total credit hours.
