Hosting Description The Universidad de Navarra (UNAV) is a non-profit private university founded in 1952 based in Pamplona, Spain. It confers 56 official degrees and administers more than 90 postgraduate programs (including 20 doctoral programs and 42 master’s programs) through 10 schools, two superior colleges, the IESE Business School and its 5 comprehensive Research Centres: CCUN (Cancer Centre Clínica Universidad de Navarra), BIOMA (Biodiversity and Environment Institute) and DATAI (Institute of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence), ICS (INSTITUTE FOR CULTURE AND SOCIETY and CIN (Centre for Nutrition Research). UNAV has more than 14.000 students in 5 campuses: Pamplona, San Sebastian, Madrid, Barcelona and New York with a wide network of international universities and research centres. UNAV has a sound track record in participating in European Research Programs. The university has participated in 126 European projects from FP4 to Horizon Europe, including LIFE, ERASMUS+ and INTERREG Programs; of which 22 projects were coordinated by the university. The University also counts with a thorough experience in MSCA and ERC grants with over 26 signed grants. UNAV been awarded with the HR Excellence in Research quality seal (HRS4R) that guarantees the implementation of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. The work team represented by the César Martín-Gómez has been working from 2001 on projects that involve the integration of building services and energy systems in complex architectonical cases. Building services here involve fire safety, water management, electricity, data networks, HVAC and renewable energies. Since 2009, the team has participated in 18 research projects: 6 private, 6 regional, 3 national and 3 European. The activity of the team has allowed the publication of more than 43 articles in indexed journals and 79 collaborations in Congresses. Offer description Digitization, sustainability and decarbonization are the three great challenges of all productive sectors today, including the construction sector. The industrialization of construction makes it possible to manufacture elements in series and obtain complete structures that are later assembled outside the factory. This model offers a long list of advantages, such as being more sustainable and respectful of the environment, shortening construction times, raising the quality of housing execution, being safe, increasing the employability of women and youth, and improving the energy efficiency. In addition to this background, Navarra has become a reference region for the high quality of its building ecosystem: construction companies, regulations, proactivity of the regional government or its quality urban planning. In this environment, the School of Architecture of the Universidad Navarra has played an important role, and especially the working group that the PI represents in the area of building services and energy systems. The offer is open to researchers who want to innovate in this area of work.
