Within the field of civil and architectural engineering, we offer one course which you will find more information about below.
Please check the individual course descriptions for possible prerequisites and note at which campus/location the course is offered.
Cities and Climate Change
Today over 50% of the world's population lives in urban areas. Cities are facing major global challenges such as unsustainable development patterns, rapid and unplanned urbanization, climate change mitigation and adaptation. As a result, cities and their populations are vulnerable and increasingly exposed to rapid and slow on-setting climate and environmental disasters, which frequency and intensity are growing exponentially.
Urban resilience is instrumental in addressing both causes and effects of climate change, rethinking the way in which cities are designed, planned and managed, developing strategies and actions for climate mitigation and adaptation.
The scientific research on urban resilience has been exponentially growing in the last decade, parallelly a growing number of cities worldwide started developing resilience related plans and actions, following the recommendations and prescriptions national and international policies international policies, as: Sustainable Development Goals, Paris Agreement, New Urban Agenda and Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction.

Experimental Architecture. Computational Design and Digital Fabrication
Digital Fabrication technologies have the disruptive potential to revolutionise how we conceive and shape our built environment. Through the use of novel fabrication techniques, designers and engineers are challenged to explore innovative structures that benefit from the capacity to produce performative and sustainable architecture with, up to now, unreached levels of complexity and control on the material organisation.
The Summer School focuses on exploring design ideas and producing fabrication artefacts as answers to some fundamental driving questions: what kind of tectonic configurations can be enabled by means of robotic manufacturing? How do we realize high-performance architecture with it? How can we digitally build bespoke architecture in a sustainable way?
