Architecture

The Department of Management in the Built Environment (MBE) provides education and performs scientific research in the management of the built environment. MBE helps to meet the growing demand for building engineers with the necessary knowledge and skills relating to the management aspects of the initiation, development, and design of the built environment. The department has an annual MSc student intake of about 80.

The field of design and construction management embraces the management of building projects by different parties, from inception to delivery and, increasingly, aspects of operation. The work of the section focuses on the improvement of collaboration between parties and integration of processes across the entire supply chain, and in particular the consequences of new practice forms such as Circular Economy for the business models of individual actors. Application areas include adaptive re-use of buildings and integration of information and processes across the whole building life-cycle.
