An architectural engineer (AE) is an engineer who specializes in the design of buildings, their components, and systems.
AEs often work at firms that specialize in a particular field of building design such as residential, educational, or industrial.
AEs are employed by firms or government agencies and are often involved in preliminary sketches, 3D models, and computer simulations of proposed building designs.
AEs are also involved in projects from the initial planning stages, with architects and clients, through construction, and into the post-construction phase.
