Abstract | Today’s innovations increasingly occur in the frontier engineering domains between disciplines. Traditional occupations may rejuvenate by absorbing emerging technologies. Having compiled a quarter century experience of research, development and deployment in construction automation and robotics, this article outlines the planned education of architects in this new crossdisciplinary domain. The chair for building realization and robotics at the faculty of architecture of the TU Munich teaches advanced construction and building management and design focusing on construction automation, robotics and services. In history new tools required new methods. The notion of robot oriented design, first published in 1988, paved the way for more than 20 automated building construction sites till today. Recent and future challenges by demography, ecology and globalization ask for innovation leaps in architecture, engineering and construction and its educational methodology. | ||||
