Description:
Building occupants are the end-users of the energy used in buildings. ICT based
solutions in buildings can contribute to saving energy and can support the
maintenance and operation of buildings. Therefore it can be expected that
automated solutions in all energy related processes in buildings will become
more prevalent in the future. The application of ICT solutions in buildings
requires interdisciplinary knowledge and competences in order to find and
design integrated solutions that can be operated in a sustainable way:
supporting the occupants needs, dimish environmental impacts from buildings and
ease operation and maintenance. Human centred design of ICT/smart solutions
requires knowledge about human perception and human building interaction and
human-centred design in architecture today requires knowledge on ICT/smart
solutions for buildings and their potential. The course brings together
students from different study fields and offers them opportunity to broaden
their insight in interaction between humans and the built environment. The
lecturers are based on latest research and have multi-disciplinary background
and address this interdisciplinarity in the lectures on: ICT/big
data/automation solutions in buildings: functions, objectives; occupant
behaviour in real buildings - outcome from field studies; Experience with ICT
solutions from field studies; framework/models for human building interaction;
personal control perception in buildings and future approaches for
occupant-centric design. In addition to the lectures, the course builds on
reading and observation tasks, and comprises interactive workshops and provides
sufficient room for discussion and reflection on the course topic in relation
to the diverse PhD topics. The course will be offered online.

Important
information concerning PhD courses:
We have over some time experienced problems with no-show for both project and
general courses. It has now reached a point where we are forced to take action.
Therefore, the Doctoral School has decided to introduce a no-show fee of DKK
3.000 for each course where the student does not show up. Cancellations are
accepted no later than 2 weeks before start of the course. Registered illness
is of course an acceptable reason for not showing up on those days. Furthermore,
all courses open for registration approximately four months before start. This
can hopefully also provide new students a chance to register for courses during
the year. We look forward to your registrations.
