Lifelong Learning Master's Degree in Robotics and Advanced Construction II
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.
The second year of the MRAC offers the opportunity to develop a thesis project with the support of IAAC infrastructure, experts and network, with the goal to maximize its impact on our society.
The development of the project will be supported by advanced seminars in Technology, Theory and Business to bring the proposed state of the art research that can really impact the construction industry. To this end, students will collaborate with one specific industry / academia or incubator to develop their project, with a series of internship immersion in the collaborative company as well as review and support directly on the thesis project.
In parallel to the development of the Thesis Project, the second year of the Master in Robotics and Advanced Construction offers a series of seminars enhancing both the theoretical, practical and digital skills of the students. Students will also have the occasion to join cross-disciplinary workshops to build large prototypes and installations.
