The bachelor's degree programme aims to train specialists who deal with the planning, installation or ongoing operation of technical facilities in buildings. The essential goal here is to create cosy and comfortable environmental conditions for the users of a building and to be as energy-efficient, resource-saving and ecological as possible.

The Building and Energy Technology degree programme can be studied either full-time, part-time or extended part-time - for details see Facts about the degree programme.

"You are studying at the Austrian Centre for Building Technology in the only university programme in Austria on this subject. Due to your sound basic and practical professional training, you are in high demand on the labour market as a graduate."

Werner Stutterecker, Director of Studies
