What is the difference between an Architect and an Architectural Engineer?
Answer:
Simple-
my professor put it simple,
"civil engineers (what architectural engr is under) make architects dreams come true"
reasons to go into engineering
1. you get wayyyyyyy more salary
2. you get to be both on and off the construction site
3. you have soo many avenues you can take in engineering, you are not stuck to designing one or 2 things-- you can design, be a project manager, be the boss, work with the city, work with a company, you can go from enviromental engineerring to structural engineering to architectural engineering easily.
architects help to get the buildings built,the engineers draw the blue prints and find the locations to build them on
Architect is an artist and a designer who comes up with the concepts. Architectural engineer does the structural analysis and detailing required to get the building built.
