    Circular Value Chains in the Built Environment

    Exchange programme

    Contribute to the circular innovation of a value chain! In this bilingual minor, you will learn to design interdisciplinary, innovative solutions in which the transition to circular chains is realized.

    The sustainability issues that organizations face pose challenges within the current supply chain structures. A circular economy requires a transition from linear supply chain connections to circular supply chain cooperation. Ownership, responsibilities, costs and revenues must be reconciled. Based on this challenge, students learn to critically analyze a transition on the flow of materials and to come up with possible solutions. In doing so, they focus on supply chain-wide issues that can arise from the circular ambitions of an organization within the construction supply chain. 

    In the minor "Circular Value Chains in the Built Environment", you work together with students from different disciplines on the circular innovation of supply chains together with partners from the professional field. These are complex supply chain issues that arise from our current and future society. This relates to agendas of:

    1. Circular economy
    2. Energy transition
    3. Scarcity of raw materials and disruptions in commodity chains
    4. Digitisation and technological capabilities as part of the solution

    At the start, students choose a Dutch-speaking or an English-speaking project group. The theory in the minor is offered through workshops and, with exceptions, is offered in English.
