Case Study: Glasgow Caledonian University advances building services engineering education with Integrated Environmental Solutions' IES Virtual Environment

Glasgow Caledonian University has taught IESVE for 14 years with Integrated Environmental Solutions

Glasgow Caledonian University needed to equip its Building Services Engineering students with the leading industry tool for sustainable design and decarbonization. The university chose to teach the IES Virtual Environment (IESVE) from Integrated Environmental Solutions to prepare students for their careers and address real-world challenges in optimizing building energy efficiency.

Integrated Environmental Solutions provided its IESVE software, which was integrated into the curriculum at multiple course levels. The solution enabled students to perform everything from basic compliance modeling to advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis. The results were highly positive, with students finding the user-friendly tool highly beneficial for their professional development and for applying their learning directly to real-world projects from their employment.
