Goals The aim of the course is (1) to convey to students the increasing temperature, irregular precipitation regimes, increasing flood, fire, landslide and drought in parallel with climate changes in the world and (2) accordingly, to gain students climate sensitive design skills.
Course Content The science of climatology, climate change, the impact of climate over human life, climate and environment, bioclimatic comfort, the relationship among climate and design component, green spaces and climate
Learning Outcomes 1) Explains climate change and its effects.
2) Applies the climate sensitive design approach and principles.
3) Ofer to the relationship beetwen climathological paramaters and human comfort
4) Shows global climate change awareness based on scientific knowledge.
