Syllabus

Buildings are significant users of energy in a society and their energy consumption has important implications to social, economic and environmental issues. A challenging task of architects and other building professionals today is to design and promote energy efficient buildings in a cost effective and environmentally responsive way.

This course will introduce the basic concepts of energy efficiency in buildings, provide practical information of energy efficient technologies, and explain the common methods for building energy analysis. Students will study the topics through readings, discussions, and project analysis. It is hoped that the knowledge and skills acquired could help generate innovative architectural designs and improve performance of building systems.
