Technical systems and urban services
Today, urban engineering plays a central role in the creation and functioning of cities, in the design of projects, and in the development of urban policies. From energy to transportation, from communication networks to flow management, a wide range of technical fields are now mobilized to shape cities. The challenges they address lie at the heart of urban planning: managing urbanized areas exposed to natural risks and climate change, building energy-efficient cities, designing projects on polluted industrial land, and questioning the model of industry within the city.
