Eleven years ago such an idea would have been mere fantasy. I am extremely glad that we have been chosen to hold the AESOP congress, and that you have come to the event and have the opportunity of seeing Southern Moravia, its industrial and educational centre ... In many regards we will have to say goodbye to outdated methods, and to take on a comprehensive approach to the issues. Associated with this is the scope of vision and competence, the given comprehensiveness of study and the development of the personality of the student at technical universities. A considerable role here is to be played by the humanities and social sciences, if only because a multi-disciplinary approach is imperative to the resolution of complex problems at the end of the 20h century and beginning of the 21" century. We have arranged your stay in Brno and the congress programme with great enthusiasm and the help of the preparatory committee and the organisation TA-SERVICE Brno. I would finally like to thank you once again for coming to Brno, and to wish you all the greatest of success. Brno, Monday 19 June 2000 Doc. Ing. arch. PhDr. Karel Schmeidler, CSc.
