Topic outline

  • Sustainability in architecture is a broad topic that affects many different fields and areas. In order to do justice to this complexity, we invited different architects and experts to talk about their expertise and experiences. In addition to work reports on case study projects, the lecturers will cover broader perspectives around different themes of sustainable architecture, circular economy, urban farming etc.

    Lectures take place on Thursdays from 09:15 to 12:00. Lectures will be held on campus unless advised otherwise. Lectures are not recorded. Not all lectures will be shared in MyCourses after.

    The introduction is on Thursday January 12th at 9.15 in Väre F101

    You need to attend 80% of the lectures write an essay on the topics covered. You can also find more information on this in the assignments section in MyCourses. In between, a peer-review round takes place, where you can assess and support the work of your colleagues.

    The course is evaluated on a pass/fail basis.
