To access the offer and to enroll for courses log in (with your n.ethz account): https://psapp.ee.ethz.ch/ Please note that the P&S-site is accessible no earlier than two weeks before the start of the semester until four weeks after the start of the semester. Enrollment is only possible from Friday before the start of the semester until noon of the first Friday in the semester.
The category of "Laboratory Courses, Projects, Seminars" includes courses and laboratories in various formats designed to impart practical knowledge and skills. Moreover, these classes encourage independent experimentation and design, allow for explorative learning and teach the methodology of project work.
Learning objective
With the Net-Zero Programme (https://ethz.ch/en/the-eth-zurich/sustainability/net-zero.html) ETH wants to contribute to addressing climate change by reducing its own emissions. As one of the largest departments at ETH, D-ITET also needs to identify measures how as a department we can contribute to these goals. Thereby, it is important to take measures which are effective and have the highest potential for emissions and/or energy consumption reductions. In this P&S, the goal is to support the department in that regard and to quantify the effect of potential measures. Without specific numbers and a thorough analysis it is not possible to separate measures with negligible impact from such with major impact. The students are free to choose a specific measure that they would like to analyze. For example, this could entail an assessment (by measurements and/or calculations) of how much energy can be saved by temperature control in offices or turning off specific devices instead of keeping them in standby or how much energy could be produced by installing PV on all buildings and how much of this can be used to supply the energy needs, etc. At the end of the P&S, the students have not only learnt how to approach such questions but ideally are also in the position to recommend very specific measures to be implemented.
