About programme:

Title: CIVIL ENGINEERING
Degree: Master

Standard length: 1.5 years (3 semesters)
Credits: 90 ECTS
Language: English
Programme co-ordinator: prof. Ing. Michal Jandera, Ph.D.

Master degree programme Civil Engineering aims to raise engineers fully qualified for complex design of buildings. It focuses in particular on concrete, steel, masonry or timber load-bearing structures, construction of foundations and structural dynamics. It allows a selection of projects and optional courses based on the student´s area of professional interest.

Characteristics:

• One-and-a-half-year (three semesters) Master degree study
• Covers fundamental tasks of load-bearing structures and construction of foundations
• Complex structural design project in each semester
• Optional courses offered in each semester
• Student-selected individual final project lasting the whole semester

Structure of study:

Master degree programme covers courses, such as:

• Numerical Analysis of Structures
• Concrete and Masonry Structures
• Steel Structures
• Timber Load-Bearing Structures
• Construction of Foundations
• Structural Dynamics
• Experimental Analysis of Structures

Students may also select from optional courses and structural design projects based on their focus. Optional courses are, e.g.:

• Probability and Statistics
• Modern Optimization Methods
• Diagnostics and Surveying of Historical Buildings
• Integrated Building Design
• Computer Aided Structural Design
• Fire Resistance of Steel and Timber Structures
• Steel Bridges

Career prospects:

The graduates of the Programme of Civil Engineering will be employed primarily as:

• Designers of building structures
• Concrete, steel, timber and masonry structural engineers
• Construction managers
• In the development and testing of building materials

The programme is organised to prepare the graduates to become members of the Czech Chamber of Chartered Engineers and Technicians.
