Civil Engineering Innovative solutions for people and environment

The students acquire skills in various disciplines to assume senior positions in engineering firms, building companies or public institutions.

In the profile Civil Engineering within the Master of Science in Engineering, our students have the opportunity to combine different fields of interest from Natural Sciences and Engineering.  You will be able to further improve your analytical and holistic competences to become one of the future leaders in your industry.
With possible focal points ranging from Bridge and Structural Engineering, Tunnel and Dam Construction, Road and Railway Construction, River and Hydraulic Engineering, Maintenance of Civil Engineering Structures, Sustainable and Energy-efficient Construction, Natural Hazards and Building Envelopes, students are afforded additional flexibility within their chosen specialization and areas of interest. In the Bridge and Structural Engineering major, students deepen their understanding of statics and construction, while the major in Geotechnical Engineering revolves around the modeling of foundations and supporting structures and the major in River and Water Engineering focuses on issues such as natural hazards.  The Major in Road and Railway Construction mainly covers traffic planning and management.
