The Master in Robotics and Advanced Construction (MRAC) seeks to train a new generation of interdisciplinary professionals who are capable of facing our growing need for a more sustainable and optimised construction ecosystem. The Master is focused on the emerging design and market opportunities arising from novel robotic and advanced manufacturing systems.
Through a mixture of seminars, workshops, and studio projects, the master programme challenges the traditional processes in the Construction Sector. It investigates how advances in robotics and digital fabrication tools change the way we build and develop processes and design tools for such new production methods.
Course: MAA01 23/24 Ecological Interactions Seminar
The ecological interactions seminar explores state of the art monitoring techniques being developed in the fields of biology, ecology and agricultural sciences and repurposes them to form new systems of observation that can be applied to design practices and the built environment. Advances in data science and the growing access to DNA barcoding, and remote sensing devices are allowing scientists to detect signals from the natural world that were previously unreadable, and are revealing animal behaviours and communication channels and senses that were unknown. The seminar explores what can be learned by intercepting these signals and what might be learned from the senses of other organisms to inform our design decisions, reduce environmental impacts and deploy nature based solutions.
