The Building Systems Engineering Technology program gives students the expertise necessary to design heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC&R) systems in modern buildings. Graduates are able to design and maintain those systems as well as the necessary control strategies, in order to have healthy, comfortable environments in all types of buildings. Students apply theory and principles of engineering to develop, operate and test the electrical, lighting, plumbing, and fire protection systems along with the HVAC&R operations of any modern building.
 
Job placement possibilities are excellent for graduates. Students have a variety of career choices in manufacturing, contracting, building operations and in the design of commercial, institutional and industrial building systems.
 
Graduates of this program have significant advantages. The General Studies component of the program opens the possibility of continuing on to university. This option is taken by approximately 20% of graduates. In addition, the General Studies component teaches students superior communication skills that can open further possibilities in areas like administration or sales. In any case, graduates earn very competitive starting salaries with good opportunities for advancement.
