The Energy Engineering Research Group (iENERGÍA) of the University of Burgos is
made up of researchers focused on subjects related to efficiency, energy saving and
sustainability in construction and industry. They teach subjects related to these areas,
in addition to mathematics and digitalization. They also collaborate with researchers
from the University of the Basque Country in the field of teaching innovation.
They have been progressively implementing a teaching method based on problembased learning (PBL), which moves away from the traditional approach of theoretical
teaching, obtaining greater student involvement and better academic results.
In addition, they participate in two International Cooperation Agreements with the
Chouaib Doukkali University (El Jadida) and with the Abdelmalek Essaádi University
(Tétouan), both located in Morocco, and a Memorandum of Understanding with the
Pusan National University, in South Korea. Thanks to them, it has been possible to
develop actions such as the exchange of students and researchers, postgraduate
training in Master and Doctorate, joint participation in research and technological
development projects, the dissemination of the obtained research results, and the promotion of the transition from the laboratory to open digital educational resources in
engineering. In addition, it has made it easier for postgraduate students from Morocco
to carry out the experimental part of their research in the facilities of the University of
Burgos.
