Doctoral Programme in Energy Efficiency and Sustainability in Engineering and Architecture

This is an inter-university doctoral program involving the University of the Basque Country, the University of Vigo and the University of Burgos.

The Doctoral Program in Energy Efficiency and Sustainability in Engineering and Architecture aims to provide advanced training in the analysis, design, and evaluation of innovative solutions to address energy and environmental challenges in the building, industry, and transportation sectors. The Doctoral Program includes all cross-disciplinary research covering this topic.

Mathematical tools (dynamic, exergetic, and predictive models, optimization algorithms), experimental techniques (thermal testing, energy monitoring, microscopy, in-situ measurements), computational methodologies (energy simulation, CFD, artificial intelligence, neural networks, BIM software), and social, regulatory, and territorial approaches are used to developed the research lines that enrich the systemic understanding of energy efficiency and sustainability.

The above constitutes a research ecosystem that allows doctoral students to develop solutions from applied engineering, architectural design, and technological innovation towards a more responsible energy future.
