​
The theme of the conference this year is Educating Building Professional for the Future: Innovation, Technology and Sustainability,in the Globalised Market. It looks specifically into the joint efforts between universities and industry in educating future building professionals leveraging on innovation, technology and sustainability, in our increasingly globalised world. This joint effort requires a close collaboration between universities and industry in achieving a successful endeavour.
​
The conference venue in Singapore was also carefully selected to highlight the globalisation phenomenon by showcasing the “Asian” part of the “Australasian”of AUBEA. The Construction industry in Singapore
provides an excellent success story of close collaboration with education providers by embracing innovation, technology and sustainability, in their industry that feed back to the education systems to better educate building professionals.
