In this study program, 5 compulsory subjects and 1 optional subject out of the 2 offered are foreseen. SIR and graduate-master thesis belong to the category of optional subjects. During the second semester, the student is trained for independent scientific research work and preparation of a graduate master’s thesis. All courses in this study program are one-semester and are quantified with 6 ECTS each.
The study program should primarily train staff for the development and application of modern program models in the energy efficiency of buildings, which, in addition to environmental protection and alternative energy sources, is an important component in the development of modern energy. In doing so, it is assumed that:
* education should provide the opportunity to choose a profession and employment.
* training students to independently monitor, acquire, develop and apply modern scientific and professional achievements,
* providing the opportunity to graduate students to enroll in doctoral academic studies after completing their graduate academic studies.
The key goals of the graduate-master studies in Energy Efficiency in Buildings are to train students to:
* independent and continuous acquisition of knowledge necessary for competent practice in different professional contexts,
* the application of modern technical and technological methods and techniques for the purpose of solving various professional problems,
* integrating theoretical and practical knowledge,
* professional communication with clients for the purpose of diagnosing their problems, delays, requests and needs.
After graduation, the Master of Energy Efficiency of Buildings is qualified to:
* looks at the basic theoretical, methodological and practical implications of various theoretical systems and models,
* perceives problems independently, abstracts and defines them in a way that enables scientific or professional research,
* plans, designs and conducts research in various areas of energy efficiency,
* achieves team communication and assumes an organizational and leadership role in team work,
* understands and applies knowledge from energy efficiency for planning and implementing interventions in various fields of technology,
* understands and applies the principles of construction, administration, processing, interpretation and evaluation of necessary measuring instruments.
