SPECIAL SESSION :

Education and research in organization, technology and management in construction

Thursday September 21 st 2006 ; hours : 9.00 – 13.00

During the Conference a half day session will be organized for dissemination of key information about the status of education and research in construction management, technology, organization, economics and low. We expect that we shall have information from more than ten universities from several central or southeast Europe countries. Beside sharing information about the status and problems in education within the stated area, we shall discuss the platform for future development. Our conclusions will be sent to academic institutions and officials.

The idea is that each Head of Department or his/her Deputy or Delegate deliver report that includes short description and relevant data about education and / or research within specified topics at his /her faculty. All delivered papers about education and /or research will be published in the conference proceedings, so it will be possible to learn about practices, problems and experiences gathered by other academic institutions.

It is planned that key note speaker will put together all relevant data and prepare presentation about the overall situation and comparative issues. Also, there is possibility for each contributor to deliver short presentation (10-15 minutes maximum) about key data from report. Interest for presentation should be announced while submitting the report.
