Professorship for Construction Operation and Management in Landscaping

In construction projects, construction management serves as the vital interface between planning and operations.

The thematic focus of this subject area is on the management of planning, construction, and maintenance processes in landscape architecture. Students first gain a theoretical grounding in construction management before applying their knowledge to specific practical problems during their seminars.

Gamification is one of the methods used to teach project management at Hochschule Geisenheim University. This includes ‘Projektopia’, a role-playing game that combines classic elements of tabletop gaming with learning key project management skills.

One of the focal points of our research is the analysis of digital twins of construction projects in the context of their environment, which can be used to simulate the overall system in the construction transformation process. In contrast to Building Information Modeling (BIM), this approach accounts for not only the object to be realized, but also its environment and interactions.
