What is the difference between the BHD bachelors degree and the BBT (Building Automation Technology) degree?
The BHD bachelor’s degree is taught by mainly HVAC faculty members and equips graduates to design heating, cooling and refrigeration systems, or work with business management in these areas. The work is likely to be a combination of office and field work. The BBT (Building Automation Technology) bachelor’s degree prepares graduates to install, service, and work with programming involved with controls systems. These controls may involve more than the HVAC system, encompassing security, elevators, and other mechanical systems. HVAC associate’s degree students may enter either program.
