During a recent workshop in Aveiro, the project team outlined the course's framework, which emphasizes practical skills in identifying and analysing structural failures, combined with a robust understanding of legal frameworks. Key elements will include the application of technical and legal terminologies, development of investigation strategies, and hands-on experiences in identifying damage causes. The course design, inspired by Bloom's Taxonomy, will also include gamified elements such as educational escape rooms to enhance learning engagement.

Supported by an Erasmus+ Cooperation Partnership, the course aims to address the acute need for specialized knowledge in forensic engineering. The development process is backed by several European universities and includes contributions from noted academics and professionals in the field.
