Program Outcome
Graduate's skills
Graduates of the specialization Transport Constructions have the necessary skills in terms of using professional terminology and processing technical documentation. They know the principles of professional methods of this field and are able to use them in a practical context. They can adopt and develop new theories and methods of this field, including their inclusion in application practice. Basic competencies include the ability to design transport constructions and related technologies efficiently, taking into account the minimization of their negative environmental impacts. The graduates are able to analyze and synthesize problems in the framework of building organization and construction production, to use technical procedures for solving problems of building practice and to design buildings, also in terms of safe use and maintenance of constructions.
Graduate's general competence
The graduate will be able to perform individual activities within the selected professional field and participate in implementation teams for complex solutions of large-scale orders. They will be able to independently solve partial tasks and plan, implement, organize and decide partial building activities and works, whether directly in building production or in design and construction practice, especially in the field of rail and non-rail transport constructions. The graduate will be theoretically equipped for the follow-up master's study of the technical orientation of related study programs at the Faculty of Civil Engineering of VSB-TU Ostrava or at other faculties of civil engineering in the Czech Republic or abroad. After fulfilling the requirements for professional practice, the graduate will comply with the conditions for authorization in the field of Transport Structures.
