Email: [email protected] Official page of the students representatives (FSR, Fachschaftsrat) of the Masters programme "Resource Efficiency in Architecture and Planning" (REAP) at HafenCity University Hamburg. The REAP FSR is categorized by three goals; to represent and advocate for our fellow students, both with the administration and the university at large; to strengthen the ties between REAP generations and continue working cross-culturally and truly interdisciplinary; and to promote the visibility of our programme at HCU and beyond.

The REAP Master’s programme has people from all over the
world, with a wide range of academic backgrounds and work
experience (e.g. in architecture, urban planning, geography, civil
engineering, law, political science, economics, humanities or related
fields), sharing an interest in technology and society, and a
concern for urban life, as well as for interdisciplinary approaches to
problem-solving. The programme:
» provides an overview of the complex relationships between building,
urban services technology (i.e., building construction and renovation,
energy and water supply, waste and waste water management)
and the environment (i.e., resources and space consumption,
impacts on environmental media and ecosystems),
» gives insight into patterns of user demand and behaviour and how
they affect the technology-environment interaction,
» imparts knowledge of resource efficient technologies, e.g. energy
generation from renewable sources, as well as underlying principles,
such as source separation and the closing of material cycles, demand
side management, decentralised, modularized service provision,
etc.,
» reviews experience with and conveys ideas for different forms of legal
and economic organisation of planning, construction and urban
services provision and
» teaches study and research methods and techniques for planning
and decision support.
