- Did you know Architectural Technologies is the only architecture and interior design program in Saskatchewan? Grads of the program go on to work in all sectors of the design and construction industry – in architecture and interior design firms, construction companies, and engineering firms. They also work as home designers, building inspectors, sales specialists, and many more jobs. If a building is built in Saskatchewan, an architectural technologist is probably involved in its design, construction, or project delivery.
