ENAC - PhD Position in modeling social and environmental performance of buildings
The ETHOS Lab (Engineering and Technology for Human Oriented Sustainability) is seeking PhD candidates to work on projects related to inference, modeling, and optimization of social and environmental performance of commercial buildings.
Hybrid working and other evolving patterns of behavior have added an additional layer of complexity to optimal management of building spaces and the organizations who use them. To address this complexity, we must expand our understanding of human experiences, performance, and well-being in buildings. Our research will therefore involve the development of tools and methods for better characterizing occupant behavioral dynamics in buildings and the social and environmental performance of buildings, leveraging survey-based and data-driven methodologies. Students will have the opportunity to engage in real-world analysis and experimentation in partnership with the Smart Living Lab at EPFL Fribourg, where ETHOS is based.
