Form! Structure! Style!
Equip students with practical engineering skills as they tackle complex structural design challenges. Through hands-on building and blueprinting exercises, learners will integrate mechanics into their designs and investigate the effects of external forces, applying the engineering design process to real-world scenarios.
As skyscrapers redefine city skylines, architects and engineers grapple with critical structural and aesthetic challenges. In Structural Design, students step into their shoes, tackling real-world STEM problems to understand the architectural principles behind the buildings they see every day.
