隨著生活型態的變異，人們處在各類室內場所的時間也隨之增長，又由於室內許多有害物質的濃度比室外高，室內空氣品質的管理更顯重要。本課程透過教師授課、學生課堂參與及案例討論等互動式課程設計，幫助同學了解室內空氣品質的相關議題，從汙染物的來源、傳輸、量測及介入策略，到現行的法規及近年受到關注的氣候變遷影響等，對室內空氣品質領域進行基本且完整的介紹。
Difference in life style has led to a change in the time people spend indoors, including in different types of buildings and countries. This also involves elevated exposure to indoor air pollutants which very often have higher concentrations compared to those outdoors. As a result, the importance of indoor air quality (IAQ) cannot be over-emphasized.
This class is designed to cover a wide range of IAQ issues, starting from pollutant emissions, transport, measurement, and intervention strategies, to IAQ regulations and its possible alterations due to climate change impacts. Students will familiarize IAQ topics through lectures, in-class discussions, homework (lab report) and the class project.
