建筑科学理学硕士

在硕士级别，每个专业都提供不同的课程，以使毕业生为从事专业的设计实践，咨询或达到高等教育教学的最低要求做好准备。通常，在硕士学位中获得的知识是攻读博士学位的基础，并且该学位被认为是高级研究工作的准备。该学位的最终结果是硕士学位论文。该高级研究计划专注于性能空间和其他听觉敏感环境的声学质量的优化。该领域的研究使人们更加了解如何设计空间以实现给定目的的最佳音响效果。该计划面向具有学士学位且对声学，音乐，建筑和/或工程感兴趣的学生。伦斯勒提供了许多与该领域研究相关的先进设施，包括带双耳听力测试站的半消声测试室，
The Graduate Program in Built Ecologies develops innovative buildings systems, structures, and ecologies informed by the behavior of natural systems and emerging technologies. The program offers MS and PhD degrees in Architectural Sciences with a concentration in Built Ecologies. The Built Ecologies program creates next-generation systems and strategies that operate synergistically with larger ecologies. Coursework is taught in New York City at the Center for Architecture Science and Ecology (CASE), a unique – Institute Wide – research and education center. CASE is located at Industry City, Brooklyn in New York City and at Rensselaer's campus in Troy, NY. Research at CASE addresses the need for radically improved, energy-effective, and sustainable built environments through research projects that range in scale from the level of materials to the level of integrated systems. Current research includes distributed on-site energy harvesting for transformation, storage and redistribution, bio-mechanical air filtration, dynamic day-lighting systems, advanced multi-material additive manufacturing technologies for the built environment, energy integrated composite materials, smart buildings and smart resilient cities.
