About this programme
Introduction The Building Sustainability in Urban Futures (MBA) at Technische Universität Berlin is an interdisciplinary Master’s programme for professionals who aim to work in sustainable real estate, building planning, urban development, and the management of complex transformation projects. The programme addresses one of the central challenges of the coming decades: how buildings, districts, and cities can become more sustainable, energy-efficient, climate-conscious, and socially responsible. Buildings play a key role in the energy transition and in achieving climate targets. At the same time, sustainable solutions must be technically feasible, economically viable, legally sound, and accepted by the relevant stakeholders. The MBA therefore combines perspectives from engineering, real estate, economics, business administration, law, management, and urban sustainability. Students learn to assess building and urban projects from technical, ecological, economic, and organisational perspectives and to develop practical solutions for complex professional contexts. Advantages and Opportunities The programme has a strong focus on practical implementation. Sustainable building and urban transformation are rarely purely technical tasks. They require coordination between planners, investors, public authorities, users, consultants, engineers, and other stakeholders. Strategic communication, cooperation, and project management are therefore essential for successful implementation. The
