The certificate program “Ecological Building” teaches qualitative and quantitative analysis basics for sustainability-relevant aspects of buildings and urban quarters. The emphasis is on ecological issues, as well as the economic, social and technical aspects of construction. For this holistic approach, different levels of focus come into play - from the city, to the neighborhood, to the individual building.

The course program consists of three modules: Introduction to Ecological Building, Life Cycle Engineering, and Circularity & Healthy Building. Upon successful completion of the program, participants will be able to plan for future generations, evaluate sustainable buildings, think in terms of resource cycles, and consider biological construction and health aspects in their building plan processes.

Why this program?

Urban planning and construction play a crucial role in reducing CO2 emissions and adapting our cities, neighborhoods and buildings to climate change. That means that a fundamental shift to interdisciplinary, holistic planning is necessary. That is where this certificate program comes in: “Ecological Building” was developed as a component of the new continuing education courses on sustainable buildings and neighborhoods in close cooperation with the Chair for Energy-efficient and Sustainable Design and Building at the Technical University of Munich . Experienced lecturers prepare specialists and managers for the challenges of the construction industry by integrating the latest research. This informs our engaged teachers as they convey an integral planning approach to implementing sustainable buildings,
