Overview
Reduction of energy use in buildings
Construction and operation of buildings are responsible for more than 40% of the energy use and material consumption in the world today. An engineer specialising in Indoor Environmental and Energy Engineering can reduce this considerably by optimal design of the building and the building envelope, choice of materials, utilisation of different kinds of renewable energy and optimisation of the operation of the building.
Job and Career
Graduates from Indoor Environmental and Energy Engineering from Aalborg University have many possible career paths, both in private companies and the public sector.
Problem based learning and working in groups during your study programme will give you many useful skills that make you an attractive candidate on the job market. You know how to approach a problem and solve it in collaboration with other people, which is often how things are done in the “real world”. Furthermore, you have experience with collaborating with others from different professional and cultural backgrounds.
You can work with specific building assignments doing calculations, choosing materials, and supervising the construction process.
Your work tasks may include:
- Energy efficient buildings
- Alternative energy
- Computer simulations of airflows
- Indoor climate in offices and houses
- Heating plants
- Mechanical and natural ventilation
