En este contexto, la rehabilitación energética de edificios es una línea de trabajo prioritaria que actúa sobre el parque edificado, y los edificios públicos deben ser un modelo o ejemplo para impulsar este tipo de actuaciones. Los centros docentes, con un potencial de ahorro muy importante y con unos consumos energéticos asociados básicamente a dos grandes conceptos, la iluminación y la climatización, pueden considerarse como un laboratorio de investigación en cuanto a eficiencia energética. A partir de las experiencias adquiridas durante más de 10 años se ha desarrollado una metodología de análisis para la intervención en edificios docentes en Barcelona con los siguientes objetivos: definir los indicadores estratégicos para identificar las oportunidades de ahorro, evaluar las posibles medidas de reducción de consumos a partir de la limitación de la demanda, analizar y dar contenido al papel de cada uno de los actores que intervienen en las estrategias de uso y gestión de los edificios escolares y establecer los criterios que deben considerarse para realizar las futuras intervenciones de rehabilitación energética.

The IDPS programme offered at the EPSEVG emphasises the introduction of competences in sustainability and human technology. The main objective of the IDPS is to improve the learning outcomes and competences of industrial design engineering students especially in areas of sustainability. It is divided into two parts. One part covers four three (ECTS) credit core courses in specialist fields of study such as Eco Design , Human Centred Design , Sustainable Value Design and Visual Language and Grammar and the second part involves working on a project (worth 18 ECTS.

Constructive and community-oriented learning postgraduate education Authors: Segalàs Coral, Jorge; Tejedor Papell, Gemma Abstract: The International Seminar on Sustainable Technology Innovation is a course offered within the framework of the Master of Sustainability of Barcelona Tech University. The main goals of the course are: to connect experts, future researchers and policy-makers on real topics where long-term technological system renewal is needed in order to fulfill sustainability requirements; to increase the understanding of sustainable development in the long term and the role of technology therein embedded in systems; to increase the capability to apply foresighting, forecasting and backcasting; to contribute to the development of the scientific work competences of students; to increase the ability of teachers to teach the approach of future imaging, foresighting, forecasting and backcasting; to become an experts’ meeting point; and to create networking activities among different groups and institutions. The Course introduces methodology of Backcasting scenarios in real sustainability problems. The learning environment is international, transdisciplinar, intergenarational and intercultural. It includes stakeholders’ dialogues and discussions. The course is organized around current sustainability-relevant topics, which are analyzed in case studies based in different contexts: going from developed to developing countries and from local to global cases. Students apply scenario methodologies to the case studies in order to set up the most contextualized sustainable strategies. In 2012, UPC Barcelona Tech is running the course for the fifth time. This year it is organized within the Erasmus Intensive Program framework financed by EU. Students and lecturers from 6 European universities and with different backgrounds are participating in the course. The course is divided into 4 phases: 1- Local situation analysis. From March to May students analyze the topic in their own countries/regions. 2- Case study analysis. In May, students are grouped into international, multidisciplinary teams and define the current state of the case studies, as well as the questions and challenges that they pose. 3- Seminar at UPC. In June, students, lecturers and stakeholders meet in Barcelona, where the course is run for two weeks in a presential framework. 4- Evaluation of the course. Students analyze their learning experience in terms of competences acquisition. So far more than 130 students, 30 lecturers and 50 stakeholders have participated in the course. The topics analyzed in the course vary each year and are related to relevant sustainability challenges: urban solid waste management; food & drinks packaging waste; overfishing and marine ecosystem degradation; sustainable mobility and agro-ecology. This paper explains more about the learning environment, as well as the challenges and lessons learnt when organizing such a course, and the gains made by students.

Sustainable Technology Excellence Program (STEP-Vilanova) Authors: Segalàs Coral, Jorge; Hernández Gómez, M. Angeles Abstract: Embedding Sustainability in technological curricula has become a crucial factor for educating engineers with competences in sustainability. The Sustainable Technology Excellence Program STEP2015 has been designed in order to assure a successful Sustainability Embedding into all the degrees offered at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – Barcelona Tech. This Program takes advantage of the opportunity that the redesign of all Bachelor and Master Degrees in Spain by 2010 under the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) framework offered. The STEP program goals are: • To design compulsory courses in sustainability in each degree; • To develop the conceptual base and identify reference models in sustainability for all specialities; • Create an internal interdisciplinary network of faculty from all the schools; • To initiate new transdisciplinary research activities in technology-sustainability-education; • To spread the know-how attained, • To achieve international scientific excellence in technology-sustainability-education • To graduate the first engineers/architects of the new EHEA bachelors with sustainability as a generic competence. The program has been structured in 4 phases: Phase 1. To analyse Sustainability Competences and strategies within Barcelona Tech, and benchmark with other technological universities in order to develop a feasible and effective program. Phase 2. To carry out a pilot implementation of the STEP program in 5 schools. Phase 3. To spread the implementation to 10 Schools of UPC taking advantage of the lessons learnt in the pilot experiences. The goal here is to spread out all the know-how attained in the process to all schools in order to ensure that all UPC graduates acquire the competence in sustainability and social commitment. Phase 4. To apply the program to all UPC schools and departments. In this context, the goal of this document is to present the different actions carried out in the Engineering School of Vilanova i la Geltrú, the lessons learnt and the outcomes of the application of the program.

This initiative, while focusing on graduate (Masters) student mobility, also includes faculty mobility, language instruction and assessment, project evaluation and other services to insure ongoing success. Effective existing collaborations, i.e., an active undergraduate exchange semester and collaborative faculty activity established a solid foundation for the new dual/concurrent technology degree program and enabled it to get off to a fast start. Two of the new consortium members are already partnering in an Atlantis undergraduate student mobility project that is working well and which has generated considerable student and faculty traffic and collaboration well in excess of the funding requirements.
