Architecture at Norwalk

Program Description

The Architectural Engineering Technology program was established at the Norwalk State Technical College. After the merger of technical and community colleges we became part of the Community Colleges.

The program is designed not only for high school graduates who wish to pursue careers in the construction industry and profession of architecture but also for anyone interested in architecture. The graduates of the program can work in an architect's office, Construction Company, engineer's office, building department, as manufacturer's representative or at a lumberyard. They could also work in the field of construction or transfer to five-year, NAAB accredited architectural schools, to become licensed architects.

Our program has CADD (computer aided drafting and design) fully integrated into the curriculum. In addition to our dedicated design studio students have access to CADD Laboratory. They can use the CADD Lab to work on different projects during their study at NCC.

Local architects, builders and former graduates are serving on an Advisory Committee. They make sure that the program is on a cutting edge and that what is being taught has direct application in the "real" life.
