Building Engineering

What is the objective of the course? What is it?
What does it train you for?

The program aims to train professionals specializing in the various areas involved in building design: structural, systems, architectural and restoration, and materials.

These areas are covered in the different courses under the guiding principles of sustainability and innovation.

The goal of the program is to develop new professionals capable of addressing the design of even complex building systems in an interdisciplinary, flexible, and innovative manner, taking into account new technologies, construction methods, and materials, while ensuring structural safety, energy efficiency, and the architectural quality of buildings.

What do you learn?

Students will acquire knowledge about:

• The design and construction of buildings, as well as the restoration and use of existing buildings;
• Structural design of systems in reinforced concrete, steel, and masonry, with particular focus on structural safety in seismic zones, addressing both new constructions and the consolidation and strengthening of existing structures;
• Systems design, with an emphasis on topics related to energy-environmental sustainability and construction safety;
• Issues related to the use of traditional and innovative construction materials, with particular attention to degradation and durability.

What can you do with it?

In addition to practicing as a freelancer, graduates with a Master’s Degree in Building Engineering can hold both technical-administrative and managerial positions of high responsibility within public and private organizations.

Graduates will also possess knowledge in the fields of business organization and professional ethics, gained through internship experiences.

They will be able to communicate and articulate issues related to the specific aspects of building systems, engaging in discussions by presenting ideas and offering solutions to both specialist and non-specialist audiences.
