8 Construction MSc Degree Programs in Poland

The program provides the students with a vast palette of Civil Engineering topics, to finally bring a solid professional background. The schedule covers Mathematics, Theory of Elasticity and Plasticity, Complex Concrete Structures, Complex Steel Structures, Construction Management, Advanced Foundations, Hydro, and Marine Civil Engineering, Hydraulics and Hydrology, Finite Element Method, Wind and Earthquake Engineering, Engineering Surveying, Reliability of Structures, Bridge Structures, Transportation Engineering, Geotechnics, Structural Dynamics, Seminar on Civil Engineering, Finite Element Method Applications, Cultural Creation Related Aspects of the Construction Industry, Geology and Hydrogeology, Thesis Seminar.

The Mechanical Engineering field of study is intended for the first-cycle graduates who wish to expand their knowledge of basic engineering subjects and develop an interdisciplinary, systemic approach to solving technical problems, the ability to use modern tools of computer-aided design, manufacturing, operation and recycling processes in the field of vehicles and construction machinery.

A four-semester program and preparation of the final M.Sc. thesis under the guidance of the Faculty supervisor allows students to acquire comprehensive knowledge and qualifications in the area of civil engineering.

This major is focused on construction management skills in an international environment, e.g.: Applied Construction Management, International Tender Management, Social Aspects in International Construction Industry, Cost Management in Construction, Strategic Management in Construction, BIM in Construction Management, International Construction Seminar. Complementary knowledge on modern world and history, e.g.: History of Architecture or Art, History of Civil Engineering, Current Developments in Civil Engineering and Built Environment, Sustainable Design and Environmental Engineering, Ethics and Social Aspects of Economic Activity, Polish Language and Culture.

The main attention in this major is paid to educate a modern construction engineer, ready to work in an international construction company, e.g.: Complex Concrete and Metal Structures, Mathematics, Issues in Contemporary Building Physics, Precast Concrete Structures, Theory of Constructions, Special Foundations, Structural Dynamics, Structural Reliability Theory, Theory of Elasticity and Plasticity. Sophisticated tools to design an engineering structure enriched with management skills and sustainability in structures, e.g.: Management of building projects, Sustainable Construction, Computer Methods, CAD, Cost Management in Construction.

The students gain theoretical knowledge and practical skills connected with structure design, construction materials, and technologies as well as static and dynamic analysis of reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete, metal, wooden, ground, and complex constructions. They learn how to use advanced computational models and modern IT solutions in civil engineering. In addition to participating in lectures, presentations, labs, seminars, and projects the students may also take part in the student scientific groups and international exchanges.

Graduating from the CUT (studies in English) will provide an opportunity for the building license application after certain legal requirements are fulfilled. After a two-year practical training period, the graduates will also have a chance to apply for the European Union engineer degree, which is honored in all European Union countries.

Graduates gain extended and in-depth specialist knowledge in the field of geodesy and cartography and real estate management, have team management skills, show creative initiative, have the ability to make decisions and deal with complex technical, legal and administrative tasks and problems.
