see moodle: https://edu.epitesz.bme.hu/course/view.php?id=702 The seminar is related to the Urban Housing LAB of the BME Department of Urban Planning and Design: http://urb.bme.hu/urbanhousing/ The objectives of this course are to introduce you to think critically about contemporary mass housing issues and solutions, to have an international comparison about the urban housing situation, and to make understand the complexity of mass housing development. As students arrive from different countries, the seminar uses the opportunity to learn from each other, to discover and compare several case studies. The five 4x45minute-long occasions are differentiated by geopolitical position and key topics: Introduction / urban housing terminology / comparative research method Post-Socialist Central European Countries / large housing estates Western European Countries / contemporary alternative housing solutions Post-Soviet Countries / homeownership USA / affordable housing

WHAT

While climate change is posing at risk traditional water resources management, there is the urgent need to devise low-energy and low-impact solutions to adapt the environment, societies and economies to this threat. The WAT-CHANGE Seasonal School aims at introducing the participants to the new growing area of solutions provided by water-related ecosystem services. In particular, we will deal with nature-based solutions for water supply, treatment of polluted water, and flood risk mitigation such as managed aquifer recharge, river restoration, constructed wetlands, sustainable drainage systems, and remediation of contaminated sites using phytoremediation techniques. At the end of the course the students will have acquired the knowledge and skills that will allow them to understand impact and functions of the main nature-based solutions for solving the most common water resources management problems and start their design.

Course Description: The class is mainly focused on energy efficient building concept and design criteria heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting systems Building integreted renewable systems such as photovoltaic, wind turbine and solar thermal cost analysis methods and relevant legislation for buildings in Turkey. Course Objectives: To examine a building project based on energy efficient design criteria to meet its own energy zero energy building. This course is dedicated to high-level research and design concerned with zero energy buildings. It will be carried out together with an international colloboration to examine geografical, cultural and social diferences by working on a same project. To teach set of viable building system packages, renewable energy systems and their integration possibilities into buildings. To establish a “best practice” approach by setting an environment of multiple viewpoints, experiences and analysis methodologies all within the context of team learning. To teach the existing market developments, preferred designs, trends in buying and preferred designs and financial market availability of funding. Clearly business principles are practiced to show real investors the project is feasible and viable. To teach analyzing the project within multi-disciplinary team and ensure that the evaluation of international partnerships.The solution set for this type of project requires multiple viewpoints, experiences and analysis methodologies all within the context of team learning.
