Joseph A. Remai School of Construction

Architectural Technologies

Diploma

Program Overview

Architectural technologists are involved at every stage of building design and construction, from blueprints to building codes and from interior design to space planning. It’s a great career for detail-oriented, visual thinkers who enjoy working in a technology-driven environment. You’ll be able to work in residential, commercial and institutional design and construction.

Architectural Technologies is a three-year diploma offered full time at Saskatchewan Polytechnic Moose Jaw campus. It includes five academic semesters and three four-month Co-operative Education work terms. The program offers two areas of concentration: Building Sciences and Interior Design. The first three semesters are common to both areas. You’ll focus on residential design and wood frame construction (National Building Code - Part 9), and build knowledge and skills in:

properties and function of construction materials
criteria and methods of building construction and design
preparation of construction documents
construction contract administration

In your fourth and fifth semesters, you’ll focus in on your chosen area. In Building Science, you’ll receive an introduction to commercial and institutional building construction with emphasis on construction detailing and methods, structural systems, environmental controls and the building envelope (National Building Code - Parts 3 and 4).

In Interior Design, you’ll receive an introduction to commercial and institutional interior construction with an emphasis on interior finishes, detailing and methods, space planning, lighting design and material selection (National Building Code - Parts 3 and 4).

Your co-operative work term counts as courses. You pay tuition and receive credit, but you also get paid. It’s a great way to gain valuable experience while earning a salary.

The Co-op Work Term Advantage

Co-operative work terms are paid, so you'll earn while you learn. Saskatchewan Polytechnic arranges your interviews; it's up to you to shine. It's also a chance to develop important "soft skills" in job interviewing, professional attitude, interpersonal communication and more.

Many of our co-op employers require both a valid Saskatchewan Driver's License and a clean Driver's Abstract. For international students, it can take up to 12 months to obtain a Driver's license; therefore, it is to your advantage to come with a Driver's License from your home country if possible.

Diploma to Degree

Use your Architectural Technologies diploma to ladder into the Bachelor of Construction Management or Bachelor of Applied Management right here at Saskatchewan Polytechnic. This diploma can also be used as a stepping stone to the Bachelor of Interior Design degree program at Yorkville University or the Bachelor of Technology degree program at Memorial University in Newfoundland.

Learning Environment

42 students are accepted each year.
Students will experience studio and project work, lectures and co-operative work terms.
Class hours are 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. daily. Students are expected to complete 30-40 hours of homework each week outside of class time.
There are many group projects that require coordination.
It is very important that students take initiative and manage their work time effectively.
Students select their specialization after successfully completing the third semester

Admission Method

First Qualified/First Admitted

The First Qualified/First Admitted (FQFA) process is used for the majority of Saskatchewan Polytechnic programs. When we determine that you meet the program's admission requirements, you will be offered admission based on the date you fully qualify for the program. The earlier you provide the appropriate documents and information that qualify you for admission to the next intake, the earlier you might begin your studies. Your application, once qualified, is always considered for the next intake.

Applicants to programs with multiple intakes in an academic year remain in the application pool until the last intake for that academic year has begun. Programs using the FQFA process receive applications year round and maintain an application pool for each academic year. Qualified applicants who are not offered a seat must reapply for the next academic year.

Sponsored programs or programs targeted to specific groups do not accept applications year round or maintain an application pool.

See Admission Processes for more information about this method of admission.

Student Achievement

Student Awards
Students in the Architectural Technologies program have recently won Academic Achievement and Centennial Merit awards for overall average as well as specific awards for achievement in individual courses.

The Saskatchewan Association of Architects, the Interior Designers Association of Saskatchewan, Construction Specifications Canada, and the Saskatchewan Applied Science Technologists and Technicians all offer student awards.

Skills Canada
The Skills Canada National Competition (SCNC) is the only national, multi-trade and technology competition for students and apprentices in the country.

Every year, more than 500 young people from all regions of Canada come to SCNC to participate in over 40 skilled trade and technology contests.

Each year, the Architectural Technologies program sends a graduate to compete al the national competition. Competing against the best representatives from all across Canada since 2000, Saskatchewan Polytechnic students have routinely earned a place on the podium.

Applied Research Awards
The Architectural Technologies program often participates in applied research with industry partners. The Architectural Technologies program has won five awards from the Regional Centre of Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development fro a series of small projects including studies of a green roof, community gardens, 100-mile house and a project in Thailand which involved students travelling to Thailand to build a school using local-sustainable materials.

In addition, the program won a federal NSERC grant for study of energy consumption in commercial buildings.

Types and Rates of Employment

Co-operative Employment Program
All students are required to work three paid work terms with local employers. When a graduate seeks full-time permanent employment, they are looking for their fourth job, not their first. Generally, students from this program find co-op employment.

During temporary economic downturns pertaining to resource prices, it sometimes takes longer to find employment. Our students and graduated have an edge over those without formal construction education.

Typical co-op employment over three semesters.

Architectural firms (18)
Construction companies/Project Management (16)
Government facilities (10)
Engineering companies (4)
Other (9)

In Regina: 33 placements
In Saskatoon: 28 placements
Other locations: 14 placements

Graduate Employment
In recent years, all graduates seeking employment have been employed in the construction and design sectors. Many return to a previous co-op employer. Other seek new opportunities. Some continue with their educations.

Graduates may be employed in design offices, by homebuilders, by heavy construction companies, by property managers, by governments, and by construction material suppliers.

Self-Employment
It is not unusual for a graduate with a few years' experience to open their own design or construction management firm, usually in the residential sector.

Student Applicants can Connect with Program Graduates

There is no better way to assess the program than to speak with former grads who now work in the construction industry. Contact the program and you will be put in touch with several grads.
