The student competition “Nearly Zero” enters the next round! In the winter semester, we dealt with the topic of multi-storey residential buildings, in the summer semester, we will shift towards the topic of office and administration buildings. We will explore the measures that we can use to meet the legal requirements and the consequences that can be expected for the built and non-built environment. In addition, we will have a critical look on the legal requirements and develop an own attitude to the topic.

The “Nearly Zero” student competition is organized by the Institute of Buildings and Energy in collaboration and with the financial support of ARE Austria Real Estate with a total prize money of 10 000 EUR. The goal is a mutually beneficial cross fertilization between teaching, research and practice.
