Area: Sustainable Architecture Focus: Investigate the differences between the use of double glazing windows and one glazing windows in university dormitories and audit the quality of life in indoor spaces to show the its impacts on energy optimizing and welfare of residents. Field of Study: I want to do survey and compare two dormitories in North Cyprus, Famagusta, EMU University such as Hassan Uzuk with double glazing windows and DAU dormitory as a place that have one glazing windows. Also, I want to find the solutions to prevent noises, prevent the wasting of energy. To enforce this research I am going to observe its impacts on the students that have lived in both dormitories in all seasons of the year.
