Responses from 445 working professionals in the Architectural Engineering & Construction (AE&C) industry were collected through a recent survey to inform curriculum changes to an architectural engineering program in the Midwest. Responses were collected across 52 closed and eight open-ended items to gain an industry perspective on the relative importance of course topics in the curriculum, the selection of Architectural Engineering (AE) degree concentration options, the format of graduate degree capstone projects, and the factors that AE&C employers consider when hiring graduates and experienced employees. The curriculum changes inspired by this survey are presented together alongside the program’s previous AE curriculum to more thoroughly characterize the program attributes that are desired by the AE&C industry.
