Construction Management

This page contains automatically translated content.

Complex research initiatives require the interdisciplinary participation of scientists from different disciplines. Comprehensive scientific expertise and specialist knowledge of construction technology, management and economics are prerequisites for practical research activities in the construction industry. For this purpose, a cooperative collaboration of various scientists from the fields of architecture, civil engineering and others is essential, who bring with them special expertise and inspire the joint research and development work.

The IBW bundles the existing research activities of professors from different departments and subject areas and sets new research priorities that cover all areas of the construction industry.

Within the Institute of Construction Management (IBW), the Department of Construction Management focuses on the content relevant to the technical and economic operation of construction-specific production and business units. This content is understood as the sum of the instruments of entrepreneurial action that must be mastered in order to achieve project-related construction management goals.

In this context, the subject area of construction management also forms an interdisciplinary interface between civil engineering and the specialist disciplines of construction law and business administration.
