Building Design
It’s one thing to create a beautiful building design — it’s another to create a design that enhances the lives of people living or working within it.
Our building design and drafting courses will show you how theory and practice combine to create residential, industrial and commercial buildings that don’t just look good — they support people’s wellbeing and productivity.
You’ll learn specialist skills in problem solving, project documentation and quality assurance. Upon completion, you’ll have the experience you need to not only create great designs, but to make projects happen and become an effective leader.
Whether you progress from a building design course into a career in building, architecture or design, the practices and methodologies you learn at Swinburne will help you achieve the best results for your clients.
