The Architectural Technology program prepares men and women for careers in the Architectural Industry as drafters, designers, project managers, or material salespersons. Students are also prepared for related fields such as environmental design, industrial design, sustainable technology, urban planning, fabrication, or construction management. Courses of study may be selected and scheduled in any order based on course prerequisites, the available class schedule, and/or academic and technical competencies. This degree requires greater than 60 units and therefore more time to complete.
