The Master of Technology in Building Energy Performance is a unique program that aims to fill the need for a new kind of professional who can influence the design, construction and operation of buildings to ensure a low energy performance.The lab combines concepts and practices, systems and strategies, simulation techniques, physical measurement and data comprehension.  It includes the basics of building physics, thermal comfort, ventilation needs, climate response, and passive comfort strategies. The first half of the semester is covered in learning the theory portion and concept and performing various experiments on a live building so as to give an on field feel. The second half of the semester is covered in applying those concepts in performing simulations and understanding the energy consumption pattern and energy needs of building.
