Focus on the technical systems that keep buildings at the optimal temperature whilst still remaining energy efficient.
Overview
Important dates
This involves the thermodynamic fundamentals of how HVAC systems work. You will learn how to design, monitor, and optimise them, within the context of smart energy grids and renewable energy sources. You will also look at system-level modelling and simulation, smart controls, and the integration of buildings into wider energy systems, understanding how modern technologies are changing what is possible in energy management. The specialisation leads naturally onto roles in building services, indoor climate management, and smart buildings design.
