Abstract
Energy conservation performed important role on responding the climate changes on personal and organizational position. Personal responses are known as crucial part toward lower carbon emission, energy consumption, water usage, etc. Nowadays every architecture students in the world has responsibility to design more green building or environment friendly city during their study at campus so they will become agent of change on their future world. However there is less evidence of the on those global movement such endeavors on the student’s behavior and actions. This study objective is to analyze the knowledge of energy conservation from architecture students and their implementation on design project. Literature studies, questionnaires, and statistical analysis were performed to pursue the objective. In the result, we can summarize that student energy conservation awareness and design project were related in unique ways.
