11. Professional career after university? • Design company • Integrated building design • Building services design (HVAC, sanitary technology) • Consulting engineer in the field thermal performace, acoustic, lighting, building energy, energy auditing • Building services design team leader • Building practise • Building company manager • HVAC commissioning • Administrative • Government, local authorities • Doctoral studies • And other…. Authorisation Environmental engineering Building design Energy auditing

12. Research Project SMARTHOMES The Smarthomes project is aimed on monitoring and remote control of building services. The measured data are processing and sending via Internet wires from a local gateway into central database somewhere in the world. • There are stored measured values of: • Indoor climate – air humidity and temperature • Heating system – surface contact temperature • Gas concentration – CO, CO2 • Energy consumption – electricity, water, gas • The energy supplier is able to affect supply of energy or from dispatching centre to read energy meter. • An user of this system can watch the monitored rooms on your PC screen, mobile phone or on your handheld.

13. SUNtool 5. FP EU UK, France, Finnland, Greece, Switzerland, Czech Republic • Project SUNtool aims to develop an integrated resource flow model and complementary educational tool. This will enable community masterplanning professionals (architects, town planners, etc.) and specialist consultants.
