Berangere Lartigue

Berangere Lartigue teaches in Carnegie Mellon Architecture’s Doctor of Design (DDes) program.

She is an Associate Professor at Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France, where she teaches heat transfer, thermodynamics and aerodynamics to undergraduate students. Berangere also developed a course on initiation to research for graduate students in the Master’s program for sustainable buildings.

Among her research topics, Berangere investigates the thermal characterization of materials to analyze the relation between a material’s micro-structure and its macroscopic thermal properties. She also studies optimization techniques to improve the thermal performance of building envelopes across multiple criteria such as energy consumption, daylighting and thermal comfort. She also develops models to simulate the behavior of buildings’ occupants using artificial intelligence techniques.

Berangere acts as an expert for reviews of European projects and as an associate editor for scientific journals.
