Course Overview
This course represents the concluding project for the microcredential in Building Energy Modelling and Simulation. Learners will apply the knowledge of whole building energy modelling and simulation they acquired in the instructional courses. This project will be at the equivalent level of complexity as a real-world industry project. Mentoring and guidance will be provided by an industry expert faculty member with current, relevant industry project experience. This project course provides learners with experience comparable to industry experience in the field, starting with problem definition, methodology, energy modelling and simulation of design options, development of a proposed design, and justification of the recommendation. This will be summarized in an industry-style report.
