Cette fili猫re se concentre sur la n茅cessit茅 critique de repenser nos espaces et syst猫mes urbains actuels, en raison de la croissance rapide des populations urbaines, en particulier dans les pays en d茅veloppement, et des probl猫mes li茅s au vieillissement des infrastructures et 脿 l'茅talement urbain. Actuellement, 55 % de la population mondiale vit dans les villes, mais ce chiffre devrait atteindre 68 % d'ici 2050 (ONU-DESA, 2018). Cela offre des opportunit茅s de d茅veloppement d'environnements urbains durables. Les 茅tudiants seront initi茅s 脿 la th茅orie et aux applications de la conception et du d茅veloppement durables dans le contexte urbain. Ainsi, les cours de cette fili猫re explorent la conception et la r茅-ing茅nierie des environnements urbains, des lieux de r茅sidence et des lieux publics, dans le contexte mondial et local, en vue de la revitalisation urbaine, de la croissance et de la densification pour atteindre une consommation r茅duite de ressources naturelles, une g茅n茅ration de d茅chets r茅duite et une utilisation 茅conome de l'茅nergie. Les syst猫mes de transport sont consid茅r茅s comme faisant partie int茅grante de l'environnement b芒ti. La fili猫re examine le d茅veloppement urbain de mani猫re holistique et interdisciplinaire en int茅grant les consid茅rations socioculturelles et environnementales dans la planification urbaine et l'architecture. |

4 Flux: D茅veloppement urbain durable
|
Cette fili猫re met l'accent sur l'importance de construire et d'op茅rer des infrastructures urbaines et r茅gionales de mani猫re 脿 r茅duire la consommation de ressources naturelles, la production de d茅chets et la consommation d'茅nergie, afin d'atteindre la durabilit茅 urbaine. Les villes repr茅sentent une part importante de la consommation d'茅nergie et des 茅missions de gaz 脿 effet de serre. Selon le Programme des Nations Unies pour les 茅tablissements humains, les villes consomment 75 % de l'茅nergie primaire mondiale et 茅mettent 71 脿 76 % de toutes les 茅missions de CO2. De plus, les mat茅riaux couramment utilis茅s pour les infrastructures, tels que l'acier, le ciment et le verre, ont une empreinte 茅nerg茅tique et une empreinte carbone 茅lev茅es. Par cons茅quent, cette fili猫re repr茅sente un domaine critique pour 茅tablir des voies de durabilit茅 cruciales, comme le d茅veloppement de nouveaux mat茅riaux et syst猫mes de r茅cup茅ration des ressources et de l'茅nergie 脿 partir des d茅chets. Les 茅v茅nements m茅t茅orologiques extr锚mes, tels que les temp锚tes intenses, les inondations et les journ茅es tr猫s chaudes, peuvent perturber les villes et causer une perte de vies et de biens catastrophique. Ainsi, les r茅novations et le d茅veloppement d'infrastructures sont n茅cessaires de toute urgence pour adapter les infrastructures au changement climatique gr芒ce 脿 des crit猫res de conception, d'utilisation des mat茅riaux et de strat茅gies d'exploitation bas茅s sur les sc茅narios climatiques futurs. Les cours de cette fili猫re couvrent de mani猫re approfondie ces sujets. |
