Best program in the Nation! And Moses is awesome! AEs are the behind-the-scenes magic makers that bring all the architects' visions to life and make the built spaces better for the users. 👍
Architectural engineering is the focus on a building's function, construction, and how a building is going to withstand any storm or load to be safe for people to be in. Architectural engineering in Penn State has five options: acoustical (sound), electrical, mechanical, structural, and the construction. I am going for the structural option in AE which focuses heavily on a building's structure. How can a building stand and deal with weight both inside and outside of it. Architecture is the focus and study of the design of the building. How will the building be produced to look pretty, but also be safe and make room for the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and some other things. The main conflict between Architectural engineering and architecture is the design aspect. Architects come up with a design and say this is how I want the building to look and here is what we could do to make this happen. The Architectural engineers then come up with ways where they could make this building happen and sometimes it does not always work out in the architect's exact plan because there could be some structural issues or other conflicts enflicting. I hope that this answers your question.
At my college, we focus on architecture, construction, and structural. There's no option for a specialty that other schools have. It's also a technology program as well. So we actually take design studio classes and get to design buildings. We take architecture history and theory classes as well. But we do take 4 classes geared to structural which you can say is our 'specialty' So architecture is basically designing the building Architectural engineering is engineering building systems of a building (structural, electrical, plumbing, mechanical) Structural Engineering is designing structures (columns, beams, girders, etc) and even doing forensic analysis and/or load stability verification, of a building or any standing structure (bridges, damps, etc) In the AE PE test they go over a section of structural and also a section of some building systems which can overlap with general topics in the ARE exam. The ARE exam doesn't go over any form of structural at all. The SE PE exam goes over sooo much structural for plenty of things, not just buildings. Now you can take the SE PE exam after graduating from an AE program, you would just have to study for it as there are topics on it school will definitely not cover at all. My Strength of Materials professor took the SE exam after graduating from the school I'm currently at which is just AE.
Kendrick, Feel free to reach out to the department head of Penn State architectural engineering. We can set up a meeting and introduce you to our students.
Engineering of land vs engineering of buildings. But honestly, Civil Engineers are more in demand. The industry is not all that trusting to architectural engineers.
Basically. But Civil can deal with waste water management, hydraulics, surveying etc. Also not electrical, mechanical. Architectural is basically engineering disciplines for buildings and buildings only
Roads, bridges, dams, wastewater treatment, storm drains, landfills, the list goes on. Civil Engineers in a nutshell deal with Engineering of land, while Architectural Engineers deal with Engineering systems of buildings. Although there are Civil Engineers that specialize in structural design
I am so glad that Chip Israel was included in the video.

what is the different between architecture, architectural engineering and structure engineering?

So architecture is basically designing the building
Architectural engineering is engineering building systems of a building (structural, electrical, plumbing, mechanical)
Structural Engineering is designing structures (columns, beams, girders, etc) and even doing forensic analysis and/or load stability verification, of a building or any standing structure (bridges, damps, etc)
In the AE PE test they go over a section of structural and also a section of some building systems which can overlap with general topics in the ARE exam. The ARE exam doesn't go over any form of structural at all.

Wow I am hesitating between archetectual engineering and civil engineering.

same here. For me, it feels like they both have structural engineer
Engineering of land vs engineering of buildings. But honestly, Civil Engineers are more in demand. The industry is not all that trusting to architectural engineers.
So architectural engineering is more geared towards buildings while civil engineering is geared towards roads/bridges?
more or less, yes
Basically. But Civil can deal with waste water management, hydraulics, surveying etc. Also not electrical, mechanical.
