About the course

Course content

The course is part of the master study program on building informatics and wood building technologies, and will give a specialization within the topic. The project work can have either investigation or research content. Relevant topics for the project can be picked from the whole life cycle of a building project. The project work can be carried out either individually or in groups. The final report can be individual or a combination of individual and group work. The project work can be designed as a startup project for the master thesis.
