Building Energy Design
Are you interested in energy optimisation, renewable energy in building design, building operations, and indoor climate?
Today, there is great focus on energy use and renewable energy. Consequently, it is expected that the building industry will contribute to creating solutions to the challenges which society meets in connection with restructuring the energy system into 100% renewable energy.
The restructuring into renewable energy creates a number of new challenges - both in regard to reducing the energy demand in existing buildings, implementing renewable energy production, and developing interaction between buildings and the energy supply system. These tasks require graduates who possess a comprehensive understanding of and specialised knowledge about energy design in buildings.
As a Master of Science in Technology in Building Energy Design, you will work with reduction and optimisation of
energy use in buildings through for example application of renewable energy in both design, construction, and
operation.
Throughout the programme, you will obtain specialised knowledge about energy conditions in buildings, and you will learn to combine and integrate solutions for construction, installation, and energy technology with the purpose of creating a cost-effective whole with a minumum of environmental damage.
During the study programme, you will gain an integrated understanding of the relation between energy efficient design of buildings and optimal operation concerning indoor climate, energy consumption, and overall economy.
You will obtain specialised knowledge about energy design in buildings, and you will be able to create cost-effective solutions with minimal environmental impact in terms of design, construction, and HVAC systems.
You will work with the Aalborg method of problem based learning providing you with the opportunity to solve complex real-life work tasks in groups with your fellow students and often in close collaboration with industrial partners.
Na studia magisterskie mogą kandydować wszyscy, którzy ukończyli studia licencjackie lub inżynierskie (studia I stopnia), studia magisterskie lub studiują na ostatnim roku studiów I-stopnia. Studia, które planujesz powinny mieć zbliżony profil do tych obecnych lub ukończonych, ponieważ w procesie rekrutacji kluczowa jest ich zgodność programowa.
- Wykaz punktów ECTS – osoby, które są jeszcze w trakcie studiów, muszą załączyć wypis punktów ECTS, w którym będzie wykazane, jakie przedmioty były realizowane na studiach oraz ile punktów za nie otrzymano.
- Dyplom ukończenia studiów licencjackich lub inżynierskich – jeśli jesteś absolwentem wyższej uczelni, nie potrzebujesz wypisu, wystarczy załączyć dyplom ukończenia studiów wraz z suplementem (w języku angielskim lub oryginał z tłumaczeniem)
Wyniki z testu z języka angielskiego należy przesłać do 31 lipca. Wraz z aplikacją musisz koniecznie przesłać certyfikat lub potwierdzenie zapisania się na honorowany przez tą uczelnię test językowy - w potwierdzeniu musi być Twoje imię, nazwisko i termin, w którym będziesz zdawać test.
Spełnienie wymagań w zakresie języka angielskiego można udokumentować w następujący sposób:
IELTS – 6.5
TOEFL – 88
In order to apply, you must hold one of the following undergraduate degrees:
- Bsc in Engineering
- Bachelor of Engineering within the field of Mechanical Engineering or Civil Engineering
- Bachelor of Architectural Technology and Construction Management
- Bachelor of Technology Management and Marine Engineering or the like.
With a Master of Science in Technology in Building Energy Design, you have plenty of opportunities to find work. Your potential future job title could be for instance
- project manager
- specialist
- energy consultant
- head of operations
You can work in consulting engineering companies where you can make calculations, choose materials, and supervise the construction. You can also work in large organisations as for instance hospitals and large real-estate companies and municipalities where you can work with the optimisation of the operation of the buildings in relation to both indoor environment and low energy use.
Graduating from Building Energy Design, you will have influence on the environmental development in our future society by working with topics such as energy use and optimisation, alternative energy, computer simulation of energy flux, control of building systems, indoor climate, heating plants, and mechanical and natural ventilation.
