Master in Energy Efficiency in Buildings

Formation's goal

Career opportunities

The learner at the end of this training will be able to participate in the development of energy diagnoses in relation to the "energy and environmental performance of the building" and participate fully in the development of projects within multidisciplinary teams.
The learner will also be trained to be able to carry out research and development work in companies. Actions to be taken with greater professionalism and efficiency in the management of environmental problems.
The specific objectives are as follows:
– Have technical know-how in the field of energy management;
– Acquire skills to design an efficient building, whether from an energy and/or environmental point of view (regulatory requirements, integration of innovative concepts, renewable energy systems);
– Planning of buildings from design to construction and operation.
– Choice of sustainable building materials, digital tools, efficient appliances and sustainable energy supply.

- Collaborate in the management of projects with a high environmental content and find appropriate technical solutions,

– Develop a broad vision of the socio-technical-economic dimension of building design.
– Choose appropriate financing options and management models
– Solve problems related to energy management in the building industry
– Strengthen the links between universities and the socio-economic sector
– Promoting the results of research work
– Develop the learning of foreign languages
– Acquire knowledge and experience from other universities

      This Professional Master is intended to train building specialists by equipping them with transversal and additional skills to meet the requirements linked to the control of the environmental impact and the energy cost of buildings, for residential, industrial or tertiary use.
Nowadays, environmental problems have intensified and the energy crisis has become a reality. The counterpart is a negative impact on the environment through the increase in greenhouse gas emissions. Modern buildings need to be designed according to criteria for respecting environmental principles, using non-renewable resources as little as possible and committing to the minimum energy consumption. These principles must be ensured and taken into consideration from the start of the design process.
Energy-saving construction is attracting more and more people. In addition to being ecological, these buildings allow real savings in the long term. It is also a question of wanting to participate in the fight against global warming by reducing one's carbon footprint.
To meet these new needs, the building and energy professions must also evolve, implying a training system that responds to these changes because few professionals are today able to meet this demand for a global approach. , in particular by a lack of knowledge and mastery of the issues.
The training is therefore set up with a view to providing the local, regional and national market with specialists who can intervene in the field of reducing the energy consumption of buildings.
Given the lack, or even the absence, of the profession (university training), the cohorts of learners trained as part of this professional master's training offer will make it possible to both boost the employment sector (saturated for architects), to open up new perspectives, and finally, to boost the building sector.
This project focuses on current themes on energy consumption in buildings by putting more light on providing strategies aimed at achieving performance and low energy consumption. An approach which is carried out taking into account:
– Integration into the territory (specificity of the region and climate).
– Materials and construction site (depending on the region).
– Energy savings and sobriety of use.
– Comfort and health.
This training offer, as it is envisaged, aims to encourage entrepreneurship at the university, in particular through the integration of a systematic approach, the understanding of market needs, the creation of a business plan and finally the creation of companies. In this same logic, setting up local and regional entrepreneurial ecosystems giving new life to national employability is possible.
