Course Description
Step into the world of sustainable engineering and design! In this hands-on course, students will explore how buildings can protect our planet—by using smarter materials, energy-efficient layouts, and creative ideas for cold climates. Acting as “green engineers,” participants will investigate building materials, test their properties, and design a small-scale eco-home model that balances comfort and sustainability. By the end of the week, they’ll understand how smart design choices shape a greener future.
