HOW ARE ECC PROGRAMS STRUCTURED
The foundational structure of the ECC curriculum is shaped by a series of learning modules that each focus on a specific topic. The modules are packaged into courses, and the courses are combined into the three offerings for the students as well as the continuing education units for professionals.
The certificates address four primary competency gaps (Energy Modeling + Simulation; Environmental Control Systems; Building Codes, Standards, and Rating Systems; and Envelope Assemblies + Structural Systems) whereas the Professional Master’s Degree address two additional competency gaps to the previous four: Measured Performance Data and Smart Building Systems.

ENERGY MODELING & SIMULATION:
Analyze design performance prior to construction

PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS:
Meet and exceed state energy code requirements

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL SYSTEMS:
Integrate energy-efficient ECS into designs

ASSEMBLIES & STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS:
Integrate energy-efficient assemblies into designs

MEASURED PERFORMANCE DATA:
Evaluate built projects through field observations

SMART BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES:
Understand human behavior impact on building operation
