Centennial College's Architectural Technology Fast-Track program allows qualified graduates with a university degree in architecture (including those from foreign universities) to gain direct admission into the third semester of the three-year Architectural Technology program to receive their diploma in four academic semesters.
In this engineering program, you'll use state-of-the-art computer technology to prepare the designs, construction drawings, specifications and reports needed to communicate with clients, builders and approval authorities. Program activities will include preparing drawings for commercial, institutional, complex and multi-use buildings. You'll also be introduced to building materials, construction methods, structural design, mechanical and electrical services, building codes, contracts, specifications, and the business environment for providing design and construction.
