Examplary Buildings: Best Practice
| Semester | 6 |
|---|---|
| Academic year | 3 |
| Course code | SMBB6IBPIL |
| Type | IL |
| Kind | Compulsory |
| Language of instruction | German |
| SWS | 2 |
| ECTS Credits | 2 |
| Examination character | immanent |
Lecture content:
The contents of the specializations Constructions and Systems are illustrated and discussed in this course by means of best practice examples in Germany and abroad. The students are trained in the analysis and evaluation of construction projects and learn to compare national and international standards. The course takes place in a German and an English speaking group. A concept of close international cooperation is aimed at. The goal is to regularly invite teachers from partner universities via Erasmus+ Teacher Mobility to present their projects. The bundling of teaching hours in a workshop can create the possibility to invite teachers from different partner institutions at the same time and to build up a consistent network.
Learning Outcomes:
Graduates acquire basic knowledge of key aspects and relationships of sustainable construction and building culture. They are also able to evaluate the influence of holistic planning on social acceptance.

| Type | PT |
| Kind | Compulsory |
| Language of instruction | German |
| SWS | 2 |
| ECTS Credits | 2 |

Lecture content:
In an excursion lasting several days, various topics of sustainable building are examined. The students will be shown the connections between building culture and ecological and energy-efficient construction methods, based on realized objects. Best practice examples will be analyzed and shown.
Learning Outcomes:
The graduates recognize the practical relevance through analysis exercises on the built project and are also trained in the area of ¿¿teamwork through joint group exercises. The graduates are able to reflect on their own strengths and weaknesses of their self-competence and resources using a systematic analysis and know the tools for using them efficiently. Work results are presented publicly and put up for discussion.

Work Placement or free Elective
| Semester | 6 |
|---|---|
| Academic year | 3 |
| Course code | SMBB6BPRPT |
| Type | PT |
| Kind | Internship (S) |
| Language of instruction | German |
| SWS | 0.5 |
| ECTS Credits | 8 |
| Examination character | immanent |
Lecture content:
The professional internship is an integrated, professionally supervised and evaluated learning and qualification process. It substantiates, deepens and imparts problem- and method-specific knowledge and skills and makes a significant contribution to a job-oriented education at university level. The assignment in the company should be related to the training focal points of the course and be carried out on a project basis. It is organized in such a way that the set goals can be achieved and documented within the given time. Alternatively, it is possible to take free electives up to a maximum of 6 ECTS. The ECTS awarded in the free elective will be credited to the same extent for the internship.
Learning Outcomes:
Graduates acquire the ability to understand, take on and work on a subtask from a larger project in a professional environment and to document the results. In particular, they learn the workflow and group organization in a professional environment. They learn to apply the practical and theoretical knowledge they have acquired in the professional world and to assess the relevance of scientific topics. Graduates are able to classify their subject in social, historical or legal contexts and to recognize networking opportunities and application references of their subject in professional life.

Lecture content:
In this course, the findings from the previous courses CON1 and 2 are combined and examined on the basis of the topic of building envelope and intelligent facade systems. Glazing systems and the consideration of the application in existing buildings and refurbishment complement the course. The lecture is complemented by exercises with calculation and design examples.
Learning Outcomes:
The graduates are able to plan energy-efficient building envelopes for both new buildings and existing ones. The work results are presented in the group and put up for discussion.

Lecture content:
In this seminar accompanying the lecture series, which extends over all 6 semesters, current, professionally relevant topics and examples from the lecture series - "Selected Chapters on Constructions and Systems" - are reflected on, scientifically analyzed and discussed in the seminar group in the context of the general development in construction. The symposium Change.Climate.Resillience and the symposium Brennpunkt Alpines Bauen are also part of the lecture series.
Learning Outcomes:
Graduates are able to analyze existing buildings in terms of their functions, construction and energy supply and to determine and plan options and measures for necessary renovation and further development work. Graduates are familiar with current built best practice examples.

| Course code | SMBB6SS3IL |
| Type | IL |
| Kind | Elective |
| Language of instruction | German |
| SWS | 3 |
| ECTS Credits | 4 |
| Examination character | immanent |
Lecture content:
In this course, the possibilities of connecting all trades and components by means of building automation and simulation with different goals and optimizations are taught and run through in a project-oriented manner. For example, the following questions may arise in these subjects: How to implement energy monitoring in a residential/non-residential building? How to integrate energy monitoring into computer AIded facility management? How to increase self-supply with intelligent combination of all trades? How can the building be operated in an energy flexible way?
Learning Outcomes:
The graduates know the complex relationships between all trades in renovated and new residential and non-residential buildings and can address a wide range of questions and goals. They create complex energy concepts and consumption forecasts and dimension a wide range of components. By applying practical projects in exchange with companies, the graduates can apply the knowledge they have learned directly in practice.
