About this programme
Digital twins, smart cities, geoinformation systems (GIS), urban and building information modelling (UIM and BIM), design automation, digital fabrication, remote sensing, artificial intelligence, human-computer-interaction – these are just some of the information technologies used to shape the world around us, impacting the liveability of our cities and urban areas. With the increasing digitalisation of the building industry and the ever-growing field of possibilities, specialists are needed to bring together parallel developments in information technologies across building disciplines and building scales. This unique programme provides knowledge and competencies on information technologies from architecture, civil engineering, and geodesy. Capture, generate, interpret, utilise, and adapt digital data and information at the interface of different digital systems. Work in interdisciplinary teams to manage, consult on, and create digital components of built environment activities at various stages of the construction lifecycle Which further expertise and skills will I acquire? You will have knowledge of the domain and technology requirements, challenges, processes, and structures at different construction scales in architecture, civil engineering, and geodesy coupled with a deep understanding of information technologies, computer science methods, data management, and systems architecture. You will be able to identify and analyse information technology issues in the built world
