The AEC sector faces an urgent challenge: achieving net-zero targets by 2050 while simultaneously creating high-quality built environments for a growing population. This challenge carries significant social and political implications for which scalable solutions require speedy discovery and implementation.
To meet this need, Australia’s leading Architecture, Design, and Engineering (ADE) practices and professional bodies have joined forces with academic researchers to establish the ARC Centre for Next-Gen Architectural Manufacturing (Arch_Manu). Funded by the Australian Research Council, Arch_Manu is dedicated to advancing national productivity and climate goals through the digital transformation of ADE professions.
Leveraging the partnership between academia and industry, we triangulate world-leading researchers, visionary practitioners, and talented graduates to integrate state-of-the-art research into practice. Our program of industry-embedded PhDs, national and international placements, short courses, and postdoctoral projects will grow digital knowledge, skills, and capacity within the AEC sector.
In this talk, we will outline Arch_Manu’s approach to not only developing and delivering impactful research but also driving sector-wide training and upskilling to ensure lasting transformation.
