The Architectural Engineering program, which began teaching in 2003, aims for the preparation of creative architects, who combine between the knowledge and skills of architecture with the knowledge of other engineering disciplines; to develop the built environment and creating high-performance buildings meet the needs of the local community and confirm the Palestinian culture.

The program also works on preparing architectural engineers with the ability of Competition, creativity, thinking-freely, taking responsibility, working in a team, interacting with community issues, and tackle challenges and technological innovations in the planning, designing, constructing and operation of buildings.

After successful completion of the program, the student will have a Bachelor's degree in Architectural Engineering. This degree takes most people five years, with 162 credit hours, to complete if they are able to devote themselves to full-time study.
