建筑技术理学硕士（SMBT）面向对建筑和城市高级技术的开发和应用感兴趣的研究生。该课程的学生学习基础工程学科的相关主题，以及将这些主题应用于建筑环境的主题。该计划向拥有工程或建筑学位的合格学生开放。该计划的重点是为建筑环境开发下一代技术，以及将最先进的概念创新应用于建筑和城市系统。在许多情况下，与工程学院的教职员工共同开展的研究计划包括能效，可持续建筑设计，控制，自然通风和室内空气质量，创新材料和结构以及建筑行为的计算模拟。
The MS program in the built environment with a concentration in energy performance and climate-responsive architecture educates students to become experts in energy-efficient building design and energy technology. The program's focus is the relationship between climate and site, thermal and visual comfort in buildings, and the demand and consumption of energy.<br>Courses in this concentration establish a basic core of knowledge of the principles of the natural energies available at the building boundary due to climate and site, thermal and optic behavior of building materials and components, passive and low-energy architectural systems for heating, cooling and lighting, and appropriate integration with mechanical systems. Additional courses are available to support advanced study and research in a variety of related specialties.
