The course increases the knowledge and understanding for differing cultural and economic circumstances or boundary conditions when planning new infrastructure solutions in an international context. Students will learn how to identify structural problems and adapt technical solutions to local settings. Special attention is directed on the ability to balance the economic feasibility versus the ecological necessity of a project when developing new infrastructural solutions.
