Transforming Architectural and Civil Engineering Education towards a Sustainable Model | TACEESM | project is imagined to articulate and meet 21st century challenges with sustainable model of architectural and civil engineering education at partner universities, through core activities of teaching, research and knowledge transfer. This project is seen as revolutionary development of partner HEIs that enhance ‘traditional’ ways of delivering knowledge with the potential for high impact on other HEIs on local, national, and regional level. It asserts new forms of delivering education through online platform that opens up enormous possibilities for partner countries to become part of European network of education and industry, and brings new dimension of education through virtual space. It employs a broad range of shared materials, instructional modules for particular architectural and civil engineering units, software’s, innovative teaching methods, designed and prepared by collaborative work of all partners and stakeholders that links newly formed educational environment to project objectives.
One of the project tasks is embedding sustainable development into institutional functions in all partner countries. By doing so all activities planned by completion of the project will continue to act as only possible way after the project is finished. Project will set up fertile ground for performing future sustainable development of long–term project goals, from which all target groups will benefit, and act as agents of change for sustainable development within architecture and civil engineering. The innovative academic environment for education programs is considered, by the HEIs of partner countries, to be a key driver for the successful growth and the continuous cooperation with industry.
