About

The Master of Science in Building Technology explores analytic means of understanding the design and behaviors of building systems. It focuses on aspects of the building performance such as heat transfer, acoustics, lighting, ventilation (computational fluid dynamics), building controls, life-cycle & maintenance, construction, and structures. The MSc in Building technology also explores design decision-making and workflow processes, particularly those related to optimization, simulation-based design methods, and/or collaborative design. This stream is applicable for students who are interested in a pre-PhD masters in architectural engineering. It is also a post professional degree for both starting and mid-career professionals/consultants in architecture and building industry who wish to specialize in a particular building technology.
