The prime aim of the School of Environmental Design is the reduction in operational energy consumption from the built infrastructure and focuses on the reduction in carbon emission and cost saving. Students will be taught skills to limit the impact of the building process on the surrounding environment. This can be achieved through analytical conception and representation of places, objects, and policies as they shape our environment. The courses that are proposed include:
- Building Technology
- Cartography
- Estate Management and Valuation
- Quantity Surveying
- Surveying and Geo-Informatics
- Urban and Regional Planning
- Architecture
- Geology and Mining
