November 22nd<\/sup> \u2013 23rd<\/sup> 2024 Graz University of Technology, Austria For a long time, scientific research only played a minor role in architecture, but today it has become indispensable. In view of pressing global problems such as resource scarcity and climate change, which are closely related to unsustainable practices in the creation and use of buildings and in the solution of which architecture therefore plays a key role, this research is also extremely relevant beyond the boundaries of its own discipline.<\/p>\n As the title SYNERGIES suggests, the collaboration beyond disciplinary boundaries is also the main focus of this symposium. The solutions to our pressing problems will not come from one discipline alone. Finding ways to amplify our individual efforts by teaming up with others is therefore something we need to become ever better at and which should inform our research. How this can happen will be one of the topics discussed at the symposium. The symposium schedule includes two keynotes and three panel discussions, each with participants from different disciplinary backgrounds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
\nThe SYNERGIES Symposium is a scientific conference on research in architecture to which the Institute for Architecture and Media at the Faculty of Architecture at Graz University of Technology invites you in a joint venture with the Architectural Research European Network Association ARENA (see www.arena-architecture.eu). Together with experts from all over Europe who contribute to the conference with lectures and\/or posters, the symposium will debate the future of research in architecture.<\/p>\n
