Dr. Siliang Yang is a Lecturer in Building Services Engineering in the School of Built Environment, Engineering and Computing at Leeds Beckett University in the UK and leading the modules of Building Services Science, Building Physics, Low Carbon Buildings and Renewables, Low Carbon Systems Design, Building Services Design Project, and Master's Dissertation for Building Services Engineering Programme. Prior to that, he was a Sessional Academic and Research Assistant at the University of New South Wales, Australia.

Dr. Yang completed his PhD in Building-Integrated Photovoltaic/Thermal Double-Skin Façades (BIPV/T-DSF) in the School of Built Environment at the University of New South Wales, Australia, in 2020. He received a MEng (honours) in Building Services Engineering from Northumbria University, UK, in 2013. He has published his important research outputs in reputable international journals, conferences, book chapters and government reports, and has been an Associate Editor for International Journal of Solar Thermal Vacuum Engineering and reviewer of the prestigious journals such as Energy and Buildings, Energy, Building Engineering, Building and Environment, Energy Conversion and Management, and Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments, Energies, Sustainability, and Buildings, etc.

Before joining academia, Dr. Yang was a passionate engineer with years of experience worldwide in building and construction industry. He most recently served as a Sustainability Engineer at Thermal Environmental Engineering in Australia. Before that, he was a Building Physics Engineer at Arup, China, and earlier in Singapore, he worked for ZEB-Technology Pte Ltd as an Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) Consultant.

Over the last 13 years, Dr. Yang has established vocational skills and knowledge of design of buildings and in-depth study of low carbon and renewable energy systems in both industrial and academic environments. He has been working on projects of various sizes in terms of sustainability design, low carbon building design and consultation in Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Middle East and Greater China Region etc.

Dr. Yang's research interests are focused on building performance, sustainability, and low/zero carbon buildings and systems. His current research activities include:
- Building-integrated renewable systems
- Sustainable and smart architectures
- Air source heat pump and building envelope retrofit
- Improvement of heat exchange efficiency in manufacturing processes
