Educational objectives

course aim is to study in more detail structural modeling and analysis, with particular reference to structural model, with its numerical implementation. By characterizing the models for the structural system and acting forces and their implementation with numerical codes, theoretical knowledge and operational procedures will be extended and completed; specific skills for the statement and development structural analysis will be developed.

Educational objectives

The course has the goal to provide theoretical and applicative issues on the relationship between architecture and building construction, through this different aspects: Introduction of the concept of building and architectural organism according to the constructive techniques, the materials and the principles of environmental sustainability. Analysis of the building organism in the technological, environmental and functional-spatial sub-systems and application of the performance approach to the various building scales. The structure and the envelope: construction principles and geometry of the supporting structure, environmental principles, construction of the envelope and energy saving. Plants, facilities ad integration with architecture.

Educational objectives

The course is aimed at learning skills and abilities, in order to understand and control the space of building systems or portions of it, through the critical exercise based on the acquisition and representation of the geometric, graphic, digital model. At the end of the course the student must be able to solve the creation and representation of complex geometric shapes, even generated in the parametric field, knowing how to set them critically according to the foundations and technical issues of the Representation Science.

Educational objectives

The Course aims to give students an organic framework for addressing the economic and management issues which characterize the activities of firms in the building market/process.
The Course is made up of two integrated teaching modules: a "institutional" Course mainly focussed on a general theoretical framework of the topic (main economic and business management principles: micro and macro economics, finance, marketing, management, etc.); a "monographic" Course focussed on the application of the topic with respect to the new market area of Facility Management (firms providing services for the management and maintenance of real estate and urban assets).

Educational objectives

The specific goal of the Project Management module is to provide methods and tools of the technological culture for a correct approach within the decision-making process, for quality control, for the management of design choices and implementation of interventions.
At the end of the Project Management module, students must:
- have acquired the knowledge of the main operational phases, of the main actors and of the instruments of control of the technological quality,

- having acquired, also through the experimentation carried out through the application, the methodologies of control of the design and construction quality, starting from the technical-economic feasibility design, towards the subsequent technical in-depth stages of the process.

Educational objectives

The module Methods and technics for the assessment of project management, integrated with the course in Project Management, has the goal to deepen the necessary economic notions for understanding, analysing and rationalising the needs upstream from a project, whether public or private, and which must form the basis of any project discussed and shared with the client, in the entire the building process acquisition of the sites, tendering and awarding the contract, site and operating management of the activities carried out.

Educational objectives

The energy diagnosis of buildings is the fundamental tool to draw a picture of the actions and investments necessary for the determination and possible reduction of economic, energy and environmental costs related to the management of the buildings themselves. An energy diagnosis must be conducted with considerable accuracy and completeness, so as to allow the identification of interventions aimed at improving the income statement of the company and / or the citizen. The energy diagnosis is regulated by legislation, but, however, the technical skills that allow the drafting of energy diagnoses that faithfully reproduce the real energy status of the building are not yet highly developed. In fact, the energy diagnosis is erroneously understood as a simplified instrument of energy certification and economic evaluation. When the diagnosis is carried out in a qualified way, it can and must act as an instrument that helps the building owners to correctly identify and manage the interventions to reduce the expenses related to energy consumption.

Educational objectives

The elective courses should be consistent with the educational objectives of the degree program.

Educational objectives

The further learning activities are aimed at opening the student to verify the skills acquired open to jobs, through the attendance of internships, seminars, workshops, acquisition of computer skills, agreed with the coordinator of the Degree Course or with the teacher responsible for the verification of the knowledge acquired in this training area.

Educational objectives

The final exam consists of a thesis, elaborated individually with a single speaker or group of speakers co-ordinated within thesis laboratories, either a design or theoretical methodological (historical or technical) type, as a thorough development of the disciplinary content dealt with during the master degree course, even with the provision of interdisciplinary knowledge. It has to express technical and expressive maturity, as an original and updated contribution to the most advanced positions of the disciplinary debate.
