Overview
Construction Engineering from Polytechnic University of Catalonia is designed to train professionals who can conceive, design, calculate and construct safe, durable, functional and aesthetic structures, using traditional and new materials, and to assess and maintain existing structures, including those that form part of historical heritage.
Students at Construction Engineering from Polytechnic University of Catalonia will:
- gain solid training in efficient management of projects and works, with a focus on technological, construction, economic, environmental, sustainable development and life-cycle aspects.
- get high-level scientific and technical training in the fields of structural and construction engineering.
- generate new knowledge, propose new research paths and study unresolved problems regarding new materials, the resistant and functional behaviour of structures, new structural forms, new calculation and experimental methods, new construction systems and new ways of considering the relations between the natural and built environment.
- communicate and transmit their knowledge and research by writing scientific documents such as journal articles and conference papers.
- demonstrate their capacity to understand the field of study in which they are involved and their ability to conceive, design and execute high-quality research, with the possibility of expanding the frontiers of knowledge and incorporating this knowledge into the production sector through research and development departments of construction companies and civil engineering consultancies.
