Biography

David Božiček is a PhD student at Built Environment program on the faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering, University of Ljubljana. His primary research is focused on the environmental impact assessment of buildings, based on the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method. His other research topics are energy efficiency, thermal comfort and development of sustainable solutions in buildings. He complements his research profile with experiences from working as a product engineer, developing and implementing vacuum insulation panels (VIP). He is currently a teaching assistant at subjects related to building envelope design, energy efficiency, building renovation and building sustainability assessment.
