Energy in the Construction of Buildings

Building specialists must be up to date on the main advances in sustainable energy in order to apply them in their profession" 

The whole set that makes up the energy performance of a city includes people, transport, businesses, commerce and, of course, the buildings that house it. Cities, large and small, are where most production processes take place. They host a multitude of infrastructure, transport lines, production sites, and all the people who use them.

Cities behave as a single body of energy consumption and expenditure; in fact, these units are responsible for almost 70% of the world's energy consumption. And this energy consumption is directly related to the amount of CO2 emissions. The highest emissions levels recorded are also related to life in cities.

Therefore, it must be taken into account that incorrect energy consumption puts pressure on the quality of other factors, such as the reduction of freshwater reservoirs, air quality and increased waste.  

In the cities, many have found their home, their personal development and their lifestyle. So, an in-depth study of Energy in the Construction of Buildings will help the student understand the responsibility of efficient use. 

Among the strengths of this program are the difference between energy consumption and demand, and a focused study on the physical influence of solar radiation, and the difference between one location and another. 

The content of this program will help the student to understand the energy performance of cities and their buildings, and the effect on health and quality of life.
Additionally, as this is a 100% online Postgraduate Certificate, the students are not conditioned by fixed schedules or the need to move to another physical location, but can access the contents at any time of the day, balancing their work or personal life with their academic life.
