130 Construction PhD Degree Programs

This programme is a valuable source of the principles and techniques needed to design and operate all types of civil construction such as highways, bridges, airports, etc. It incorporates innovations in construction, materials and equipment. The researcher should focus on the essential context in which civil engineering is grounded.

The EUCLID DSDD (Doctorate in Sustainable Development and Diplomacy) is a distance, nonresident study program.

This program constitutes a valuable source of the principles and techniques needed to design and manage all types of civil constructions such as highways, bridges, airports, etc. It incorporates innovations to construction, materials, and equipment.

EBIT’s Department of Construction Economics is a leader in the provision of well-prepared construction professionals in the private and public sector within the built environment, both locally and abroad. We are commited to make a tangible contribution to the development of the construction industry through our dedication to excellence in teaching and research. The Department conducts research in the fields of construction management, quantity surveying and real estate.

The purpose of the Ph.D. in Construction Management is to develop an intellectual with advanced abilities in applying construction engineering management with other related inter-disciplinary principles, in order to address construction management-related problems within the sector.

The Engineering Doctorate (EngD) in Construction combines advanced technical and management training with PhD level research in partnership with an industry partner/sponsor. Research projects will be directly relevant to the strategic plans of your industry partner and cover a wide range of topics in the interrelated, and globally critical areas of construction and engineering.

This programme describes the work carried out by all professional groups (Architects, Engineers, Construction Managers, Suppliers and Material Sellers, etc.). In addition, it examines the resources (money, machinery, materials and human resources) needed to carry out a construction project. Issues related to budget estimation, cost control and progress analysis of construction operations are discussed.

The doctoral programme corresponds to the main fields of research: increase of the energy efficiency of buildings, designing and researches of building’s constructions, development and research of new building materials, construction technology and management.

The Civil and Environmental Engineering PhD (CENE PhD) degree program provides opportunities for students to gain expertise in a broad range of research areas that support state initiatives, closely tie to campus research thrusts, and align with federal funding sources such as NSF, DoE, DoD, USDA and NASA. Doctoral students work with faculty advisors mentors to develop personalized programs of study and make significant contributions to the Civil and Environmental Engineering body of knowledge through their research. The requirements for the PhD CENE degree are found in our course catalog. For additional information about the CENE PhD degree program please refer to the CEE PhD Handbook.

The PhD program in Civil Engineering emphasizes advanced research and expertise in the field, helping students develop their own specialized areas of study. Students work closely with faculty mentors ...

The PhD Climate Change, Sustainability and Society is designed to cultivate a new generation of researchers equipped to tackle the urgent social challenges of sustainability in the context of global environmental change.

PhD in Civil Engineering Doctoral study is based on research in civil engineering. Students are working in one of the areas: concrete and concrete structures, steel structures, reliability and durability of structures, transport structures building environment, and urban planning.

The MPhil-PhD in Sustainable Development provides students with high-quality theoretical and scientific training, as well as practical and skillful learning experiences. It provides a transformative opportunity for those who are eager to develop a systematic understanding of sustainable development.

The Ph.D. in Infrastructure and Environmental Systems is an interdisciplinary program emphasizing innovations in design, analysis, construction and operation of civil, energy and environmental infrastructure. It also provides skills to scientifically analyze sustainability issues and explore renewable resources. Several national and international universities collaborate with the program on faculty and student exchanges, and joint supervision of doctoral students. 

The Doctor of Civil Engineering (D.Sc) helps students tailor a highly individualized program of study directed toward completion of a dissertation that is expected to make an important contribution in their selected area. Civil Engineering is a broadly based discipline that includes a variety of specialties in the areas of mechanics, structural engineering, construction materials, environmental engineering, water resources engineering, geotechnical and environmental engineering, and transportation engineering.

EBIT’s Department of Civil Engineering is undertaking future-focused research in the state-of-the-art Engineering 4.0 Complex. Its research focus areas impact on the delivery of services to the public through the development of optimal road maintenance and water reticulation networks.
