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.
Carbon Based Design | Designing Circularity in the Built Environment Introduction The intensive five-day program centered on measuring the carbon footprint and investigating novel solutions for the upcoming IAAC building. The goal was to submit a solution that would reduce the carbon deposited in the building materials by 40 percent. To make things easier in the … Read more
