外立面工程本身就是一门学科。现在，大多数大型商业，工业，教育甚至住宅建筑都是使用框架和围护结构建造的，许多工程公司都有自己的立面工程部门。我们的毕业生非常抢手。这是与CWCT紧密合作并专门针对行业设计的独特课程-克服了严重的技能短缺，使公司更容易找到所需的员工。您将了解为什么外立面是建筑物中最复杂，技术上最具挑战性和跨学科的部分之一，如何设计和开发可在技术上发挥作用并发展建筑表现形式的外立面。将理论应用于实践，您将涵盖关键主题，包括外立面材料和组件，热性能和分析，耐候性，防火性能，结构分析和采购。
Explore the complexities of the building envelope and push the boundaries of design with this unique award, the only UK course to specialise in façade engineering. This industry-led masters works closely with the Centre for Window and Cladding Technology (CWCT) to bridge the skills gap in the UK. Façade engineering is a discipline in its own right. Most large-scale commercial, industrial, educational and even residential buildings are now constructed using a frame and an envelope and many engineering firms have their own façade engineering departments. Our graduates are highly sought-after. This is a unique course, working closely with CWCT and designed specifically for the industry - overcoming a severe skills shortage and making it easier for companies to find the staff they need. You will learn why façades are one of the most complex, technically challenging and trans-disciplinary parts of a building, how to design and develop façades that perform technically and develop an architectural expression. Applying theory to practice, you'll cover key topics including façade materials and components, thermal performance and analysis, weathertightness, fire performance, structural analysis and procurement.
