Passive and active energy solutions in the building sector
The lecture series is jointly organized by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Department of Architecture. Students develop a basic understanding of the planning and operation of buildings and infrastructure, taking into account technical, economical and environmental aspects. They are familiar with the concepts of building physics, near-surface geothermal energy and energy-efficient construction on a building scale as well as on a district scale. The students have the ability to weigh different solutions, to explain them in a factual and understandable way, to make decisions and to justify them. Students are able to present the results of their work in an appropriate form.
