Prof. Dr. Jürgen Knies

Teaching Area Infrastructure planning of environmental and energy facilities

The course deals with the context of environmental and energy technology systems in a variety of ways. Students learn about the complex field of infrastructure planning, taking into account environmental law, social expectations and technical requirements:

• Ecological principles and evaluation
• Geographical information systems / BIM-GIS laboratory
• Environmental and planning law
• Neighborhood and infrastructure development

In cooperation with practice and research partners, this knowledge can be used to address highly topical issues such as

• Heat transition / municipal heat planning,
• Climate protection vs. climate adaptation,
• future water supply and disposal infrastructures, etc.

This knowledge can be deepened in project modules, elective subjects and final theses.
