After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand important connections between current and future issues relating to the built environment, discuss them and adopt a position on them. Students are given a sound understanding of the divergent approaches to the term "sustainability" and the different approaches are presented. Through discussions with top-class lecturers and experts from different disciplines, students are encouraged to take a position and develop innovative solution strategies. The consistently interdisciplinary approach enables a "big picture", against the background of which architecture, urban and spatial planning must be negotiated.
The lecture series "Building the Future - Questions of Attitude" is the result of a cooperation between the Faculty of Architecture and Planning/TU Vienna, Architecture - Green Building/FH Campus Vienna and the ÖIAV. The lecture series is dedicated to the different perspectives and approaches that contribute to the design of sustainable and future-proof architecture. Renowned architects, researchers and experts from various disciplines will be invited to present their views and visions of a sustainable (built) environment. The topics range from sustainable architectural and urban planning concepts to future technological developments and social and societal responsibility.The course aims to provide students with an in-depth understanding of the current challenges and opportunities in relation to a sustainable (built) environment. They are inspired to develop their own positions and formulate critical questions about the future of construction.
