With CirculaTUM, the Technical University of Munich does its part to reinvent the way we do business and decouple prosperity from resource consumption. The central question is: How can we shape our economy to be both more sustainable and more resilient, use resources in a smarter manner and preserve them for future generations? As a driver for the paradigm shift from the traditional, linear economy to a circular model, CirculaTUM actively promotes discourse with business and society and provides a scientific contribution to the industrial and societal transformation.

“Built Environment” is one of three focal areas of CirculaTUM. The focus of this focal point lies on the following topics: holistic resource efficiency in building design and construction processes; urban and object planning, calculation, simulation and sustainability in construction site management; repurposing and reuse, deconstruction and urban mining.
