Objectives
EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SKILLS TO BE ACQUIRED.
ACQUIRE THE THEORETICAL, TECHNICAL AND REGULATORY NOTIONS IN THE FOLLOWING TOPICS: 1) CLIMATE CHANGE - DESIGNING THINKING ABOUT THE EFFECTS ON THE CLIMATE; 2) ALTERNATIVE AND RENEWABLE ENERGIES; 3) CERTIFICATION OF ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY (APE, LEED, ITACA); 4) ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (ISO 14001 AND EMAS STANDARDS); 5) ASSESSMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF ENERGY PRODUCTION PLANTS.
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.
KNOW THE CONCEPTS OF ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY (LEGISLATION, ENERGY, PRESSURES, IMPACTS, CLIMATE) AND THE CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL COMPARTMENTS. KNOWING HOW TO BE MULTIDISCIPLINARY THROUGH A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO THE PROBLEM.
ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.
ACQUIRE THE KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY TO MEASURE THE ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE OF CIVIL ENGINEERING WORKS, TO MANAGE ALTERNATIVE AND RENEWABLE ENERGIES, TO ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION, TO DRAFT THE INITIAL ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS, TO CARRY OUT INTERNAL AUDIT ACTIVITIES AND TO DEVELOP THE MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES, OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM MANUAL, ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY, SYSTEM REGISTERS AND OPERATING MODULES.
JUDGMENT AUTONOMY.
BE ABLE TO ANALYZE THE PROCESSES OF AN ORGANIZATION AND/OR A PROJECT FROM AN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL POINT OF VIEW IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY AND EVALUATE SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS AND THEIR IMPACTS, ADOPTING THE MOST APPROPRIATE METHODS.
Prerequisites
THE EXAM DOES NOT REQUIRE PREREQUISITES. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE ABOVE-MENTIONED GOALS, KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL PHENOMENA IS SUGGESTED.

Teaching Methods
TEACHING PROVIDES LECTURE LESSONS (40 HOURS / 4 CFU) AND EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM (20 HOURS / 2 CFU). IN THE COURSE OF THE LECTURES THE STUDENTS ARE INVOLVED IN THE REASONS AND DISCUSSIONS PROPOSED WITH THE OBJECTIVE TO STIMULATE THEY ACTIVE PARTICIPATION IN THE LESSON. IN THE CLASSROOM EXERCISES, THEORETICAL ACTIVITY PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE ARE ILLUSTRATED AND DEVELOPED. THE FREQUENCY OF THE LESSONS DONT ARE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO ACCESS TO THE EXAM.
Verification of learning
THE VERIFICATION OF LEARNING IS ASSESSED THROUGH AN ORAL EXAM WITH THE OBJECTIVE TO ACHIEVE THE EFFECTIVE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE STUDENT OF THE PREPARED FORMATION OBJECTIVES. THE ORAL EXAMINATION INCLUDES THEORICAL, TECHNICAL AND APPLICATION QUESTIONS IN THE COURSE'S TOPICS. PROPOSITION, DISCUSSION AND PERFORMANCE OF REAL EXAMPLES WILL BE USED FOR THE VERIFICATION OF COMPREHENSIVE, COMMUNICATION AND KNOWLEDGE SKILLS.
AT LEAST 3 QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DIFFERENT THEMES OF THE COURSE WILL BE FORMULATED.
THE FINAL EVALUATION WILL BE EXPRESSED IN THIRTY.
THE MINIMUM EVALUATION LEVEL (18) IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE STUDENT HAS A SUFFICIENT KNOWLEDGE OF THEORETICAL, TECHNICAL, STANDARD INSTRUMENTS AND SHOWS A LIMITED CAPACITY TO USE THE STUDY CONTEXT.
THE MAXIMUM LEVEL (30) IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATES EXCELLENT AND DEEPENED KNOWLEDGE OF THE METHODOLOGIES AND OF THE INSTRUMENTS AND HAS A NOTABLE CAPACITY TO USE THE STUDY CONTEXT.
THE LODE IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE CANDIDATE SHOWS AN EXCELLENT MASTERY OF THE EMETODOLOGIES AND THE INSTRUMENTS AND EXHIBITION OF LANGUAGE MASTERPIECE AND AUTONOMOUS PROCESSING CAPACITY ALSO IN CONTEXTS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PROPOSED BY THE TEACHER
Texts
DIDACTIC MATERIALS AND DISPENSES OF THE COURSE ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE TO ALL STUDENTS REGULAR PRE-REGISTERED ON THE SPECIFIC PORTAL. THE REGISTRATION METHODS ARE PROVIDED AND AVAILABLE AT EVERY MOMENT THROUGH SENDING OF AN REQUEST PER EMAIL TO THE TEACHER OF THE COURSE.
