Conestoga’s Architecture – Project and Facility Management (APFM) is a unique interdisciplinary program combining knowledge and skills of architecture, engineering, project management, facility management, and business for the development of better buildings and environments. The program emphasizes a holistic approach to the built environment considering the full building life cycle, including strategic planning, pre-design, design, construction, occupancy, and re-use, considering the owner, the occupant, and the environment.

A significant aspect of the four-year coursework is a focus on managing teamwork and the ability to effectively communicate, including written, verbal, and graphic content. Through their coursework and co-op experiences, an APFM graduate is uniquely equipped to guide and manage the decision-making process across the life cycle of a building.

The APFM degree fosters a graduate who can contribute to an organization and the building industry in a meaningful way across a wide range of stakeholders and phases of a building project. This agility provides breadth, flexibility, and transferable skills to their future careers, as well as the opportunity to pursue further graduate studies in related fields.

What You’ll Learn

  • Demonstrate and apply an understanding of cultural values and architectural theories of function and form in the context of codes, regulations, and their significance to a built environment.
  • Apply and demonstrate the use of methods, materials, specifications, costing, and theories of building construction in architectural design and construction, through lab and industrial-based projects.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of building systems including structural, heating, ventilation, air-conditioning (HVAC), plumbing, electrical, and automation, and work with appropriate persons to creatively implement and coordinate these systems in design, construction, and project and facility management.
  • Collect, process, manage, and manipulate empirical and nonempirical research about human factors, environmental forces, and technologies, and apply this towards efficient management, maintenance, occupancy change, and renovation of the built environment in an environmentally conscientious manner.
