The Master's Degree in design and management Environmental Buildings (MDGAE), is anofficial and bilingual (Spanish-English) Master's Degree , whose goal is to train the student in design and management sustainable in the architecture sector, to be able to deal with the complexity of today's projects. The program lasts 12 months, starting in January and ending in December.

goalThis Master's Degreewas launched in 2010 in response to the growing demand from project offices and companies in the sector for specialists in sustainability at Building, to design efficient environmental projects and carry out life cycle analyses of buildings, environmental certifications and energy audits, with the aim of reducing the impact of Building.

The Master's Degree programme prepares students to be specialists capable of working in an international environment and in multidisciplinary teams. The result is the incorporation of graduates into the labour market under unbeatable conditions of competitiveness and efficiency. For this reason, the employment rate rate of the Master's Degree in design and management Environmental of Buildings is 95%.

What will you learn?

The MDGAE offers a large developmentin the field of environmental and constructivedesign, focusing on environmental, social and economic sustainability, energymanagement (active and passive measures), materials (sustainable materials, life cycle analysis, healthy materials), environmental certification of buildings (BREAAM, WELL, LEED, infrared thermography) and new construction systems that allow the design and construction of sustainable buildings.

The quantification of sustainability, the internationalization of Master's Degreethrough stays in other countries and the incorporation of international professors, the specializationand innovation, the workend of Master's Degreeat business, the internships and the learning methodology manage to approach the subject of Master's Degreefrom a global point of view, ensuring that students acquire the necessary skills to develop their professional degree programin an international and multicultural environment.
