Understanding Building Management Systems

This specialization provides a practical introduction to Building Management Systems (BMS) and their application in modern building automation. Learners progress from BMS fundamentals and AHU design to control logic, interface design, commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance through guided demonstrations, readings, interactive activities, and real-world scenarios. The specialization uses AHU systems as a practical example to help learners understand how field devices, controllers, communication networks, control strategies, operator interfaces, alarms, trends, and commissioning activities work together in a complete BMS environment. No prior BMS or programming experience is required.
