The MSc Environmental Design of Buildings program aims to cultivate a comprehensive understanding and evidence-based proficiency in designing comfortable and healthy environments within and surrounding buildings. It focuses on adapting to climate conditions and prioritizing sustainability concerns.

The construction, operation, and eventual disposal of buildings typically consume significant resources. They necessitate energy, electricity, and water, while also generating landfill waste, CO2 emissions, and various forms of pollution. As global resource scarcity becomes more apparent and the significance of sustainability concerns increases, there is an escalating need for professionals who can effectively tackle and resolve environmental challenges within the built environment.
