Data-Driven Sustainable Smart Buildings

1 CreditsBoth

Description

This course explores how analytics and applied Artificial Intelligence (AI) can transform smart buildings into sustainable, efficient, and adaptive environments. Students will learn how to apply machine learning, digital twins, and IoT data to optimise energy use, reduce emissions, and improve occupant well-being. Through real-world case studies, hands-on labs, and a project, students will develop the skills needed for the green buildings of the future.
