Lifelong Learning Master's Degree in Robotics and Advanced Construction I
Presentation
IAAC’s Master in Robotics and Advanced Construction (1 or 2-year program) seeks to train a new generation of interdisciplinary professionals, capable of facing our growing need for a more sustainable and optimized construction eco-system. The Master is focused on the emerging design and market opportunities arising from novel robotic and advanced manufacturing systems.Students of the MRAC programme are introduced to a large variety of technological tools and software that are essential for the robotic optimisation of the construction industry. During the programme, students are trained on the latest tools for digital fabrication, computational design, robotic simulation, hardware design, programming and electronics. Finally, the students will also become experts in working with KUKA, ABB and UR robots.
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.
By bringing together international researchers and industry partners from a wide variety of fields and cultures, IAAC seeks to create a multidisciplinary and multicultural environment, a place to rethink the construction sector and train the new generation of professionals capable of having a positive impact on our future built environment and economy.
The Master in Robotics & Advanced Construction is designed for architects, engineers, designers and craftsmen/craftswomen who are interested in sustainable construction and are willing to challenge the boundaries of robotics and advanced manufacturing.
Once successfully finished the master programme, IAAC students will join the IAAC Alumni Community. This is an active and dynamic network of visionary professionals spread around the world, promoting the principles and applications of Advanced Architecture, exploring new academic and research initiatives, leading award-winning practices or successful start-ups and working for internationally acclaimed firms and institutions.
