As building design and technology increase in complexity, the need to consider acoustics in the design also increases. For decades, architects have relied on engineers for the design of structural, mechanical, electrical, and lighting systems of buildings, and are increasingly relying on engineers for the design of high-efficiency building enclosures and natural lighting systems. At the same time, building systems have become increasingly integrated, and good design of the building systems requires a very interdisciplinary education. These needs have given rise to the formal discipline known as architectural engineering (AE). With education in architecture, structures, building systems, and construction management, the architectural engineer is uniquely qualified to begin a career as an acoustical consultant. There are now over a dozen ABET-accredited AE programs throughout the country and most offer at least some education in architectural acoustics and noise control. In this talk, the requirements of an acoustics education for architectural engineers are outlined and the curriculum of several AE programs is presented.
