The course focuses on the mechanical systems, fire protection systems, sanitary/plumbing systems and acoustics in buildings. Lecture discussion include HVAC systems, acoustics, vertical transportation and fire protection. Reducing operational loads and integrating high performance energy systems into buildings offer solutions towards achieving a sustainable and secure energy future. Engineers must understand the interrelationship between a building and its subsystems, and need sufficient knowledge of building system and design alternatives to recommend appropriate solutions that suit the site, climate, building type and occupants. They must coordinate the work of the engineering disciplines that carry the sustainability concept forward through building design, construction, commissioning, operation and, ultimately, demolition, recycling, and reuse

SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Community |
Students learn to develop safe, resilient, and functional buildings by coordinating mechanical, fire protection, plumbing, and other subsystems throughout the building lifecycle. |
|
SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production |
Emphasizes sustainable building practices, including recycling, reuse, and minimizing resource waste during construction, operation, and demolition. . |

This course introduces the fundamental methodologies and approaches used in conducting engineering research, with emphasis on addressing real-world problems aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It covers the types and applications of research, characteristics of rigorous and ethical research, research design, development of research instruments, and appropriate data-gathering and analysis procedures. |
Students will also develop competencies in formulating research problems and writing a research proposal in accordance with the university-prescribed format, focusing on engineering solutions that promote sustainability, innovation, and evidence-based decision-making. Through this course, learners are encouraged to develop research proposal of studies that contribute to inclusive development, responsible resource use, and resilience in communities and industries.
This course introduces the fundamental concepts of electrical engineering tailored to the needs of sanitary engineers. Topics include basic electrical principles, circuit analysis, electrical safety, power generation, distribution systems, and the application of electrical systems in water and wastewater treatment plants. Emphasis is placed on understanding electrical systems used in pumping stations, lighting, and control systems relevant to sanitary engineering projects. The course aims to equip students with the necessary knowledge to design, operate, and maintain electrical systems in the context of water and environmental engineering.
This course deals with measurement of distance and distance corrections, the use of surveying instruments, area computations, balancing the traverse, elevation determination, and leveling, stadia surveying, topographic surveying, triangulation and trilateration, missing data, irregular boundaries, and global positioning system.

This course deals with the relations between externally applied load and their effects on deformable bodies. Deformations, even though small, are of major concern. The course covers stress, strain, torsion, shear and moment in beams, stresses in beams, deflection of beams, restrained beams, statically indeterminate beams, stresses on combined loads and composite beams.
