This subject investigates the organisation of the construction industry in various country environments, with an emphasis on the strategic selection of construction technologies and methods acording to specific social, economic, legal and technological contexts as well as regional traditions. Consisting of a seminar component and a travel component (which can vary each year depending on the focus provided by the subject coordinator), the subject will expose students to unfamiliar cultures, places and people thus stimulating their ability to reflect critically on the Australian construction environment. -- Course Website
