Key skills to be learnt in the course are the following:

  1. Know what you are dealing with and know what you are doing with it.
  2. Use of digital libraries.
  3. Develop critical thinking when using tools and datasets and understand hermeneutics.
  4. Learn to be involved in collaborative interdisciplinary work.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Demonstrate a critical thinking in using tools and datasets and understanding hermeneutics.

We build. We demolish. We discard. 

What if there was another way – a more sustainable alternative? 🧐

To explore the potential of recycling in the field of construction, a team of researchers at Universitatea Tehnică de Construcții București - @utcbro asked what happens when old concrete from demolished buildings is reused to build roads – and whether this approach could outweigh the costs of using traditional, brand-new materials. 👌

The findings suggest that circular construction isn’t just sustainable – it’s also financially smarter.

What could this mean for the future of road construction?

🌍 Student Spotlight Botond Halasz, a student of A 🌍 Student Spotlight

Botond Halasz, a student of Architectural BIM Technology at @setuireland recently travelled to Valencia to take part in the #EUCONEXUS Winter School on Sustainable Strategies for Resilient Coastal Futures, hosted by the @universidadcatolicavalencia 

Bringing together students from across the #EUCONEXUS Alliance, the week-long programme offered a unique opportunity to explore key topics in coastal sustainability, climate resilience, and environmental planning through a series of micro-credential courses.

During the programme, the students engaged in specialised learning on nature-based coastal solutions and spatial planning approaches to mitigate climate risks. Through lectures, workshops, and collaborative activities, they developed practical skills in assessing coastal challenges and designing sustainable interventions.

💬 “The experience gave me valuable insight into coastal sustainability, from understanding erosion processes to exploring how planning can support more resilient coastal communities.”
