| Abstract | Key terms: Digital transformation is more than digitisation of existing processes and information | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | Independently of the building industry, Module 1 initially provides information about the characteristics of digitalisation through its principles and rules, enabling the participants to independently recognise the short-term and long-term changes that are resulting from it. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | The first module addresses the topic of digitalisation and digital transformation in a holistic sense. It is much more than converting documents into PDFs or using software. It is about transforming processes, resources and information into a consistent and efficient digital system to make life easier for employees and customers. This journey always involves change. From the perspective of other industries, we first build up a basic understanding and discuss the opportunities and risks. How do the experiences of other industries help us? What can be derived from them? Why is BIM only a small part and why is the future of BIM not BIM? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Abstract | Key terms: Managed data, semantics and file formats | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | Module 3 we leave behind the negative images from the early days of automation. A gloomy and misanthropic image of automation - both a bliss and a curse. We get to know the positive sides and learn to apply them. How do we become a sustainable "Formula 1"? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | What does it take to be able to work together in a digitally networked environment? How many "techie genes" are needed to work efficiently and effectively with structured data? The third module gives an insight into the principles of data architectures, data formats, attributes and platform technology. Machine readability as an important requirement but also as a clear challenge e.g. to security requirements. The module offers the opportunity to prepare for the voluntary buildingSMART Professional Certification. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Abstract | Key terms: Added value of digital transformation, distributed data management, digital twin, logistics and robotics. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | Using specific examples, Module 4 illustrates the foundations and versatility of building information modeling (BIM), enabling participants to deal with the concepts, applications and mechanisms involved. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | "Highway to hell or highway to haven" - the question of a clear and simple roadmap is always at the heart of a digital transformation. "Value creation" is a central goal. Digitalisation is often seen as a strategy from the productivity gap. The fourth module shows how strategic goals can be developed in a roadmap and implemented in practice and how the individual shareholders and stakeholders participate. We learn to consciously look at the topic of added value and digital transformation from different perspectives. Collision checking and quantity take-offs (QTO) are very useful. But they are only basics when it comes to real value creation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Abstract | Key terms: Business models, cultural change, disruption, evolution, lean methods | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | Module 5 focuses on cultural change, innovation, disruption or evolution? In this last model, we learn to question and discover what the 17 Sustainable Goals mean for our industry. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | As a final module, new business models are discussed and explored. Examples will be used to explore patterns and interfaces and to analyse what is needed today and in the future for a successful and sustainable development of the sector. How can innovative ideas move us forward? What can we learn from design thinking? Why is it important for people to have useful and understandable measurable values? How do the 17 Sustainable Goals influence our industry? We will analyse the topic on the basis of two concrete examples, familiarise ourselves with them and observe their further development as a result. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Abstract | Key terms: Competence, communication and network | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | The aim is to become able to analyse and implement the processes and instruments used for acquisition in one’s own company. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | Acquisition represents a separate project in entrepreneurial activity, since all the activities involved in obtaining a commission fall under this term. The “acquisition” module focuses on imparting basic knowledge of networking and professional dialogue. Both of these tools require an assessment of one’s own situation with regard to competence, resources and customer relations. The conversation is a direct interaction: everyone involved is both an addressee and also basically an equal interlocutor. Networking can be learned: situational “small talk,” social competence and a healthy ability to communicate can be learned. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Abstract | Key terms: Strategy, potentials and digital planning | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | The aim is to become familiar with the current practical work involved in IT in planning companies and be able both to analyze the specific challenges it implies and also to infer one’s own prospects for development in this context. In addition, thought needs to be given to the way in which the value creation provided by digitalisation influences one’s own company. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | IT refers on the one hand to information and data processing in a company, and on the other to the hardware and software components needed for the purpose. This “information technology” module focuses on potential strategies for company management in the IT field. The focus is not on the use of any individual programme, but on taking conscious decisions for or against IT components in one’s own company in order to obtain helpful support in one’s everyday work. The strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and risk of this strategy suggest possible potentials. The participants will present their own theses on entrepreneurship and open them up for discussion in the plenary session. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 701-0901-01L | ETH Week 2022: Urban Futures All ETH Bachelor`s, Master`s and exchange students can take part in the ETH week. No prior knowledge is required | 1 credit | 3S | F. Rittiner, F. Bargardi, S. Brusoni, R. Knutti, S. Menz, A. Vaterlaus | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Abstract | ETH Week is an innovative one-week course designed to foster critical thinking and creative learning. Students from all departments as well as professors and external experts will work together in interdisciplinary teams. They will develop interventions that could play a role in solving some of our most pressing global challenges. In 2022, ETH Week will focus on the topic of urban development. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | - Domain-specific knowledge: Students have immersed knowledge about a certain complex, societal topic which will be selected every year. They understand the complex system context of the current topic, by comprehending its scientific, technical, political, social, ecological and economic perspectives. - Analytical skills: The ETH Week participants are able to structure complex problems systematically using selected methods. They are able to acquire further knowledge and critically analyse the knowledge in interdisciplinary groups and with experts and the help of team tutors. - Design skills: The students are able to use their knowledge and skills to develop concrete approaches for problem-solving and decision making to a selected problem statement, critically reflect on these approaches, assess their feasibility, to transfer them into a concrete form (physical model, prototypes, strategy paper, etc.) and to present this work in a creative way (role-plays, videos, exhibitions, etc.). - Self-competence: The students are able to plan their work effectively, efficiently and autonomously. By considering approaches from different disciplines they are able to make a judgment and form a personal opinion. In exchange with non-academic partners from business, politics, administration, non-governmental organisations and media they are able to communicate appropriately, present their results professionally and creatively and convince a critical audience. - Social competence: The students are able to work in multidisciplinary teams, i.e. they can reflect critically on their own discipline, debate with students from other disciplines and experts in a critical-constructive and respectful way and can relate their own positions to different intellectual approaches. They can assess how far they are able to actively make a contribution to society by using their personal and professional talents and skills as "Change Agents". - Remote collaboration competence: The students work in a hybrid setting blending physical and virtual communication and collaboration methods and tools. They experience the potential and limitations of remote collaboration. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | The week is mainly about problem-solving and design thinking applied to the complex world of health and well-being. During ETH Week students will have the opportunity to work in small interdisciplinary groups, allowing them to critically analyse both their own approaches and those of other disciplines, and to integrate these into their work. While deepening their knowledge about sustainable urban development, students will be introduced to various methods and tools for generating creative ideas and understanding how different people are affected by each part of the system. In addition to lectures and literature, students will acquire knowledge via excursions into the real world, empirical observations, and conversations with researchers and experts. A key attribute of ETH Week is that students are expected to find their own problems, rather than just solve the problem that has been handed to them. Therefore, the first three days of the week will concentrate on identifying a problem the individual teams will work on, while the last two days are focused on generating solutions and communicating the team's ideas. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Prerequisites / Notice | No prerequisites. Programme is open to Bachelor and Masters from all ETH Departments. All students must apply through a competitive application process at www.ethz.ch/ethweek. Participation is subject to successful selection through this competitive process. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
