Through a combination of solid engineering fundamentals covered in the first two years of the course and advanced energy engineering topics covered in the final two years, graduates of this course will be well-equipped to source, design, convert, transmit and supply useful energy to meet the world's present and long-term needs.
This module will teach students about the role of reusing, remediating and repurposing existing structures as a sustainable alternative to demolishing and rebuilding.
This course creates an awareness of the impacts of human activities on the environment and with the knowledge, skills and competence to identify the key sustainable practices that they can take in their personal life and in their community.
This provides an overview of Lean Six Sigma concepts, integrating environmental practices into operations to benefit both the environment and bottom line. The programme focuses on real life case studies that demonstrate tangible improvements and better efficiencies across a variety of sectors and organisations in the areas of Energy, Water and Waste.
On this course you will critically consider key SDGs including peace, healthcare, sustainable cities, and water and sanitation. You will examine the ways in which development really can be sustainable, its impact on communities, and how it can make a difference to real lives.
The BSc (Hons) in BIM (Digital Construction) is a one-year part-time re-skilling programme which addresses a significant market deficit for construction professionals by providing them with the ability to use BIM technologies in discipline-specific modelling and multidisciplinary coordination contexts.
This course will provide participants with a practical understanding of the circular economy, the barriers, challenges, opportunities and impacts as well as an understanding of the strategies to design practically for circularity before solutions are built.
The Sustainability Leaders programme is aimed at those responsible for sustainability management within their company. The programme has the dual target of developing trainee skills at an individual level and delivering tangible impacts at organisation level.
This course will focus on key concepts in the Circular Economy; EU and national policy on circularity; examples and case studies; and EU Level(s) Objective and Indicators for designing out waste, designing for adaptability, and designing for deconstruction.
This course will provide learners with an overview of 3D construction printing including the evolution of 3D construction printing, manufacturers, equipment, the processes, the materials, and the opportunities and limitations of the technology. Potential markets and uses will be explored together with areas requiring further research. The course hopes to demystify the 3DCP process and provide context to its application, present the opportunities for 3DCP and share views on the future of 3DCP technology.
