About The School of Architecture Design and the Built Environment
Guardian University of the Year 2019; Times and Sunday Times Modern University of the Year 2018; THE 2017 University of the Year; these are just some of the accolades bestowed upon Nottingham Trent University.
We are focused on ‘Creating the University of the Future’, transforming the lives of our students and, through them, the world in which we live. To us, research is about more than writing papers and proposing new ideas. By daring to think differently, we’re disrupting the research landscape and finding the answers to the questions that really matter.
Almost 40% of global energy CO2 emissions stem from the construction or use of buildings and in the UK, the heating of domestic households represents 37% of all heat emissions. To focus our work in this area the NTU’s School of Architecture, Design and the Built Environment (ADBE) has created a new Centre for Sustainable Construction and Retrofit with a vision to develop solutions, skills and support locally and nationally to enable a low carbon transition within the built environment sector. We aim to both explore the applied research question of how the built environment sector transitions to a low carbon future alongside practically addressing the retrofit skills gap via the creation of new courses and providing consultancy support for business.
