Department of Environmental Engineering


Buildings and houses that have little adverse effect on the environment are increasingly demanded to protect the global environment. The Department of Environmental Engineering is developing various methods and technologies to efficiently build resource and energy-saving, healthy, and comfortable buildings. It also studies the life styles of people, which are related to energy consumption, and develops methods for evaluating and examining the environmental performances of buildings.
