Anja Willmann has been Professor of Energy Design and Simulation at Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences since 2022. After training as an interior decorator, she studied architecture in Germany, Liechtenstein and the UK, graduating in 2006 with both a Diploma in Architecture and a postgraduate Master of Science in Energy Efficient and Sustainable Building (with distinction). From 2007-2011 she was an architect and project manager at Behnisch Architekten in Stuttgart. Afterwards, she taught and researched at ETH Zurich for 5 years at the Chair of Architecture and Building Systems. From 2017-2019, she was a substitute professor for energy design and energy efficiency in the planning and building process at the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences. Anja Willmann is doing her PhD on Urban Energy Strategies targeting CO2-Emissions for Sustainable City Quarters: Analysis, Simulation and Assessment at the Chair of Building Physics at Bauhaus University Weimar. The focus of her research and teaching is on the application of passive strategies to reduce energy demand and to integrate active measures for the production of renewable energy in individual buildings and city quarters. She is primarily concerned with thermal-dynamic simulation and its integration into the initial design phases of architects.
