74 BSc Architectural & Environmental Design | Technical Environmental Studies TES MODULES OFFER a multi-scale approach to the study and practice of environmental design and its integration to the architectural design process. TES 1 module introduces the notion of environmental performance of buildings in relation to the principles of building physics, highlighting their direct link to choice of materials and construction. In TES 2 students are challenged to develop their technological vocabulary and apply different energy systems for the passive (or low energy) heating and cooling of buildings and their principle technologies. TES 3 introduces the concepts and methodologies for the environmental performance predictions and evaluations (i.e. simplified steady-state calculation to more sophisticated energy modelling and simulation) of existing buildings and new designs. TES modules are structured as a combination of theoretical lectures immediately followed by applicative workshops ranging from climate to microclimate analysis of a site to building analysis and human comfor t. Talks by guest practitioners and researchers complete the students’ learning experience.
