blended course

Dear Student,
we are glad to invite you to attend the 3rd edition of the Summer School - Sustainable
Construction.
Historically, pandemics and wars represent a moment to break with the past and reimagine
the future. It is the opportunity for a global growth by facing the new challenges to design
transformations and improvements for more sustainable and inclusive environments, resilient
to the global human and environmental changes. Thus, the Next Generation of sustainable
construction has the ambition to be greener, smarter and stronger.
The school is organized by the Department of Civil Engineering (DICIV) and the Department of
Information and Electric Engineering and Applied Mathematics (DIEM) of the University of
Salerno (UNISA), in cooperation with the Faculty of Civil Engineering of Riga Technical University
(RTU), Latvia, and will take place from August 28 to September 3, in Salerno, Italy.
You will have the opportunity to attend lectures by important international scientists and take
part to all the didactic activities in presence or in remote mode.
The school represents an important chance to improve your skills and to develop your abilities
in the sustainable construction domain, as well as to boost the networking, the cooperation
and the interdisciplinary thinking.
We will do our best to offer you a great experience, both from the scientific and the social
points of view, to let you enjoy your inclusion in the school network.
We look forward to meeting you, sure that your attendance, on-line or in-person, will be
valuable for the success of the school
