Study Info
The course spans a total of 4 semesters with mandatory attendance at all lectures. The courses always start with the winter semester in autumn of each year.
The curriculum is based on the fundamental bachelor program “Civil Engineering” and is designed for a deepening of already acquired knowledge and a further growth of competences and skills. The curriculum has a modular structure. Each module spreads over one or two semesters and contains related subjects characterised by a common competence profile. Interdisciplinary project work is organised between modules.
In Semester 1 previously acquired knowledge is strengthened and selectively deepened.
Semester 2 is devoted to a complex team project which lasts for a period of 10 weeks. In addition the semester focuses on the extension of construction business and management competences.
Semester 3 provides competence extension within the field of Structural Restoration and Redevelopment and offers a choice of optional modules in Construction Management/Administration or in Heavy Civil Engineering.
Semesters 2 and 3 are recommended for an international study exchange.
Semester 4 finally is solely reserved for writing the master thesis.
After passing the final exam graduates are awarded the title “Diplomingenieur for scientific–technical occupations” (Master of Science, MSc.)
