Towards a new interaction between educational processes and practices: Faculty of Architecture, Sapienza University of Rome
In recent decades, the professions involved in the construction sector have undergone a profound crisis, the consequence of the global economic situation. On the other hand, the acceleration of the development processes taking place in technological innovation in the IIT sector is also impacting the construction industry, resulting in a significant and profound change and redefinition in the modes of carrying out, organizing, and coordinating the activity of designing, building, and managing construction projects. The evolution of the operative instruments of control, modelling, and parametric management, and of analysis of the building’s behaviour (in terms of energy, environment, and structure), and the development of the processes for carrying out, monitoring, and managing the building’s own life cycle, are outlining a renewed framework of professional figures and specialist skills required by the international market.
