Lectures on six compact aspects gaining importance in a increasingly specialised, complex and international surrounding.
Learning objective
Participants will come to understand how they can best navigate the design and building process, especially in relation to understanding their profession, gaining a thorough knowledge of rules and regulations, as well as understanding how involved parties' minds work. They will also have the opportunity to investigate ways in which they can relate to, understand, and best respond to their clients' wants and needs. Finally, course participants will come to appreciate the various tools and instruments, which are available to them when implementing their projects. The course will guide the participants, bringing the individual pieces of knowledge into a superordinate relationship.
Content
Design and Building Process MIBS is a brief manual for prospective architects and engineers covering the competencies and the responsibilities of involved parties through the design and building process. Three compact chapters regarding the established building culture are gaining importance in an increasingly specialised, complex and international surrounding. Lectures on the topics of competence, organisation, agility, monitoring, interest, and the environment will guide the participants, bringing the individual pieces of knowledge into a superordinate relationship. The course introduces the key figures, depicts the criteria of the project and highlights the proveded services of the consultants. In addition to discussing the basics, the terminologies and the tendencies, the lecture units will refer to the studios as well as the practice: Teaching-based workshops will compliment and deepen the understanding of the three selected aspects of profession, methodology, and environment. The course is presented as a moderated seminar to allow students the opportunity for invididual input: active cololaboration between the students and their tutor therefore required.
