Von Baustandards zur Bezahlbarkeit bei Wohnungsbau und Projektentwicklung

Around 15 students from the bachelor's degree programmes in real estate and facility management and real estate and integrated building technology, which focus on real estate economics and technology, will spend 1-2 semesters examining solutions and obstacles to the creation of affordable housing.

This includes rental housing as well as ownership and cooperative models. More specifically, they examine building types, comfort and protection standards, regulations, and commercial, financial and technical approaches to solving the problem of affordability in housing. The project examines the extent to which planning and design approaches, together with requirements for construction quality and energy/building technology, enable or hinder access to housing for broad sections of society and thus, in the final analysis, may even promote or undermine democracy. This will be explored using practical examples and enriched by an excursion with a regional specialist workshop.
