2. Célkitűzések és tanulási eredmények
2.1 Célkitűzések
The aim of the course is to introduce civil engineering students to sustainable construction and operation solutions, the use of environmentally friendly materials and ways of reducing the ecoligical footprint. During the course, students will learn the application of environmental regulations and standards, as well as water, air and soil protection aspects in civil engineering practice.Special attention is given to the sustainable operation of urban management and infrastructure, with particular emphasis on energy efficiency, waste management, environmentally friendly solutions for water supply and sanitation, and the sustainability of transport systems. Students will also learn about strategies to mitigate the effects of climate change and the principles of sustainable urban development.With this knowledge, engineers will be able to make responsible decisions in the design and operation of the built environment, contributing to the creation of a sustainable built environment and liveable cities.
