Course history

Introduction

The teaching will consist of a combination of lectures, discussions, and inspection of building projects. Lectures provide the necessary knowledge for understanding climate and environmental issues, as well as life cycle approaches and systems thinking. Practical use of tools and software is taught to enable students to collect information, for calculations and assessments, and to present solutions in written reports.

The students work on a project in teams of 2-4 and are tasked with developing sustainable solutions.

If lectures are delivered online, they may be recorded, and the recordings will be made available to students on Canvas.
