NEW: International Infrastructure Technology & Management

The global population is moving inexorably into cities. More and more megacities exceeding 10 million inhabitants are evolving. Growing demands are emerging on infrastructure systems: potable water requirements, the CO2 discussion and rising energy costs require new solutions for energy production and distribution. All three categories of sustainability -environmental, economical, social- demand a rethinking of energy use. The necessary instruments must also be developed and employed. In the Master's course International Infrastructure Technology&Management (IITM), technical and management skills are cultivated to implement local and international strategies for the future successfully.

International Building Project Management

Professional needs are changing in the various fields of construction due to new building techniques, progress in information technology, the internationalisation of competition and shifting markets. Professional project management is viewed as an everyday part of construction. The master's degree course in International Building Project Management (IBPM) equips you to structure and manage complex projects.

Intercultural competence

Increasingly more building and infrastructure projects are developed and realised with international teams. This requires international competencies on all sides-foreign engineers implementing various international projects and local experts with local knowledge playing an important role in carrying out of the projects. Equally important is intercultural cooperation. Various measures in the course can improve the internationalisation and intercultural competencies. Additional the unique combination Master of Engineering+MBA can be offered.
