Goal of the studies
The student who has completed the programme understands the varieties of data created in the real-estate and construction industry and has hands-on capabilities to apply, develop and implement modern computational methods and tools to process it, with the purpose of increased quality, sustainability, productivity, and security of construction.
The student is familiar with
- heterogeneous models about built environment (building information models, city models, infrastructure models), and
- sensor and condition data generated by building automation systems and IoT systems.
The student has skills to
- utilize computational tools to query, process, and manage the data, and
- develop and extend models and computational tools for tasks in the construction domain.
