Healthier Materials and Sustainable Building
About this Specialization
In the Healthier Materials and Sustainable Building specialization, you learn about healthier building materials, exploring subjects ranging from classification of toxic chemicals to new green innovations. You start by investigating the intersection of building materials and human health. Then, you learn how chemistry and toxicology affect the built world. Next, you examine design specifications from a healthier materials perspective. Finally, you employ cutting-edge practices to execute a healthier materials project, from design to construction to the use phase. This specialization was developed by the Healthy Materials Lab at Parsons School of Design, a leading voice in the national and international dialogue about sustainability in the built environment.Created by: Parsons School of Design, The New School
