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
The summer school course aims to bring together multi-disciplinary knowledge and perspectives on climate change adaptation and mitigation in cities, from science and practice. The summer school course aims to expand the students' knowledge of policies, tools, and strategic and action planning for urban resilience, responding to the need for systemic change in tackling climate change. The summer school course uses systems thinking approach and a process design methodology to build the necessary skills and competencies to respond to a systemic transformation to foster urban climate actions. The students will work in groups using real cities worldwide, including Global South ones, as a case study to develop strategic and action plans for an urban low-carbon and resilient transition.

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?
