This course offers all students the option of a one-year paid work placement, to boost your employability even further. If you choose this route, you will take the placement following year two of your course, and then return to complete your degree.
Why take a placement?
A placement year is the perfect opportunity to gain valuable work experience, to build on the career skills we will teach you on this degree. The connections you make on the placement will improve your career prospects further, and equip you with the skills you need to secure graduate-level employment.
How we support you
The University's Placement and Work Experience Team are experts at helping you to secure a placement. They will work closely with you from the start, helping you research potential employers, discover placement opportunities, create and pitch your CV, and will coach you to perform well in interviews.

Skills
Architectural Engineers integrate engineering principles with architectural design to create buildings that are structurally sound, ultra-low energy, and sustainable.
They play a crucial role in addressing net-zero goals by developing innovative solutions that enhance energy efficiency and minimize environmental impact.Their responsibilities include collaborating with architects to design detailed structural, mechanical, and electrical systems that support both functionality and sustainability. Through technical analyses, performance optimization, and strict adherence to building codes and safety regulations, they ensure that buildings achieve the highest standards of safety, comfort, and energy efficiency.
Throughout your time at Roehampton, you will develop technical expertise, problem-solving abilities, communication, and leadership skills. You will graduate fully prepared to contribute to the evolving field of Architectural Engineering, driving the future of sustainable and net-zero building design.
Learning
You will learn via a combination of lectures, workshops, group seminars, group tutorials, and practical experimentation.
As much as possible, students will be taught in interdisciplinary groups, in open studio spaces, on projects, however there will still be some formal lectures in order to deliver discipline relevant knowledge, skills and attributes.
Assessment
You’ll be set authentic assessments, meaning that your projects, tasks and exercises will replicate the working world of architectural engineering.
You will be assessed on a variety of things which will include the submission of technical reports, lab reports, essays, in-class open and closed book tests, online assessments, and oral presentations. The programme includes both formative assessment, with respect to interim reviews and feedback / feedforward and summative assessment.
Careers
There are a number of opportunities for graduates of Architectural Engineering in the built environment sector, internationally, nationally, and regionally.
Many Architectural Engineer professionals work in sustainability departments of architectural, engineering and sustainability practices. Architectural Engineering professionals can also specialise in energy calculations, building simulation, environmental and ecological consultancy services, Virtual and Augmented Reality, visualisation, digital scanning and digital fabrication, project and construction management, and Design & Build services.
