About this listen
In this first episode of Better Ways to Build in Canada, Dr. Phalguni Mukhopadhyaya, Director of the Master of Engineering in Building Envelopes and Structures at the University of Victoria and a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineers speaks with Elisabeth. Our conversation delves into his intent on the human side of engineering.
After a career advancing material science and shaping national standards, Dr. Mukhopadhyaya shares why empathy, creativity, and communication are just as important as technical know-how—and how these skills prepare future engineers to take on climate change, circularity, and other aspects of housing.
Best Practices in Building Systems (BPiBS) | BPiBS is a collaborative and interdisciplinary research project focused on improving how housing and building systems function.
