📖Program Curriculum
First we’ll teach you the fundamental scientific principles that support the mechanical and electrical building services. Then we’ll go more in-depth exploring how to operate and control heating ventilation and air conditioning. In the final we focus on sustainability: the dynamic thermal performance of buildings energy resources combined heat and power wind power generation and lighting electrical systems and distribution.
We set lots of design projects to simulate a working environment and you can expect to use computer modelling techniques to optimise and refine your design proposals.
For full-time students your third placement gives you the chance to further hone your skills by developing real-world systems in professional environments.
