Bruce Haglund has been an architecture professor at the University of Idaho since 1982, involved in teaching, research, and continuing education. Haglund’s current interests, which build on over twenty years of experience, include sustainable and regenerative architectural design and its effects on buildings and occupants. He is past-president and current newsletter editor of the Society of Building Science Educators (SBSE). Professor Haglund recently completed a sabbatical leave as a scholar in residence at Ove Arup R&D in London. He's currently working on the multi-disciplinary Sustainable Idaho strategic initiative, developing the University's McCall Field Campus carbon-neutral demonstration project, and working with the design teams for new on-campus sustainable buildings for the Colleges of Art & Architecture and Engineering.
