Este curso ofrece un enfoque interdisciplinario de la sostenibilidad en Arquitectura. Los alumnos conocerán los elementos básicos de las evaluaciones de sostenibilidad (primera capa del modelo), así como las tendencias actuales relacionadas.
Eel curso permite a los estudiantes desarrollar un modelo de vecindario conceptual para evaluar su comportamiento y las políticas urbanas.
En la primera semana, los participantes aprenderán a desarrollar un modelo conceptual a partir de los elementos arquitectónicos de los edificios; el componente básico del cual será el rendimiento de los materiales.
En la segunda semana se exploran métodos para optimizar el rendimiento. Se detallarán las necesidades y limitaciones inherentes a la selección de materiales y elementos urbanos del vecindario (la segunda capa del modelo para la infraestructura verde, azul y gris).
En la tercera semana, los alumnos desarrollarán las herramientas básicas para introducir la energía y medir su impacto potencial sobre el cambio climático (CO2). Esto supone una nueva capa (tercera) en nuestro modelo de sostenibilidad de vecindario, que se abordará desde una perspectiva global.
En la cuarta y última semana, el curso explorará técnicas para una evaluación conjunta directamente relacionada con cuestiones de políticas a ser aplicadas.
This course is part of the Arquitectura sostenible: Evaluación interdisciplinar Professional Certificate.

What you'll learn

Sustainable Food Systems: A Mediterranean Perspective (edX)

How do we produce more, better quality, and safer food while simultaneously achieving social and environmental goals? The Mediterranean region is one of the most biodiverse in the world, home to a complex and intricate patchwork of cultures, climates, and cuisines. Food systems in the region -- represented worldwide by the "Mediterranean diet" -- are equally complex, demanding analysis across the political, social, cultural, economic and nutritional spectrums from landscape to table.

Sustainable Urban Development (edX)

Learn why cities are key in resolving global urbanization and sustainability challenges and how you can engineer tomorrow’s cities today. Did you know that cities take up less than 3% of the earth’s land surface, but more than 50% of the world’s population live in them? And, cities generate more than 70% of the global emissions? Large cities and their hinterlands (jointly called metropolitan regions) greatly contribute to global urbanization and sustainability challenges, yet are also key to resolving these same challenges.

Smart Cities, Management of Smart Urban Infrastructures (edX)

In the era of Smart Cities, learn the principles of urban infrastructure management and find ways to incorporate smart technologies into legacy infrastructures. Over the past few years, advancements in the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have significantly challenged the traditionally stable landscape of urban infrastructure services. The result is an increasing interest in the transitioning of cities towards so-called “smart cities” – an interest expressed both by technology vendors and public authorities.

Sustainable Packaging in a Circular Economy (edX)

Learn how to apply the principles of the circular economy to sustainable packaging systems. It has become almost impossible to imagine what our lives would be like without the many benefits of packaging - just think about the different packaging and single-use items you use on a daily basis. Yet as our global population grows in size and affluence, both our collective demand for packaging materials and the waste we generate as a result will increasedramatically.
