Bachelor of Applied Technology (Honours) - Architecture - Project and Facility Management
Architecture – Project and Facility Management (APFM) is a unique interdisciplinary program combining knowledge and skills of architecture, engineering, project management, facility management, and business for the development of better buildings and environments. The program emphasizes a holistic approach to the built environment considering the full building life cycle, including strategic planning, pre-design, design, construction, occupancy and re-use, taking into account the owner, the occupant, and the environment. A significant aspect across the four-year coursework is a focus on managing teamwork and the ability to effectively communicate, including written, verbal and graphic content.
Through their coursework and co-op experiences, an APFM graduate is uniquely equipped to guide and manage the decision-making process across the life cycle of a building. The APFM degree fosters a graduate who has the agility to contribute to an organization and the building industry in a meaningful way across a wide range of stakeholders and phases of a building project. This agility provides breadth, flexibility and transferable skills to their future careers, as well as the opportunity to pursue further graduate studies in related fields.
