Technical and sales representatives for manufacturers. Municipal zoning and building plan examiners and inspectors. Self-employed entrepreneurs. Average starting salaries range from 35,000 to 39,999. Creative problem solving and real-world skills will build the buildings and cities of the future. In this program, students will learn the significance of architecture to human culture and how buildings are designed, developed and constructed. Learning combines studio work, classroom instruction and field trips to study the design and construction of major construction and renovation projects ? working independently and in teams. Develop skills in manual and computer design and drafting (CADD), and then create 3D models using the latest software in our state-of-the-art design studios. During independent design projects, students determine a structure?s physical needs, and design solutions that creatively address the use of space, materials, codes, structure, construction methods, zoning and the environment. There will be an optional work integrated learning opportunity upon completion of semester four. In their last year, Technology students use 3D modelling software to design a public facility in a local community. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
