Applications are now open for a specialized training program in the application of new design and additive construction technologies, particularly using cementitious mixtures for building. The program aims to leverage the potential of 3D printing in architecture, urban furniture, and infrastructure, drawing on the expertise and facilities of the Universidad del Bío-Bío, a leader in this field in Latin America.

Technical expertise is best discussed on the construction site!
