Technology and Management in Civil Engineering

Characteristics of the study program

A graduate of the study program has knowledge in the field of design, preparation and construction of architectural, civil engineering and water engineering structures, taking into account the wider societal, economic and environmental contexts of structural, material and technological solutions of constructions, including the technology of production of building materials and products. It develops theoretical knowledge in the field of occupational safety, environmental protection and economic efficiency of construction activity. The graduate knows various specialized software and understands the importance of virtual reality in the preparation, management and control of construction projects.

Graduate profile - educational goals

Graduates can identify issues in the preparation and implementation of various types of constructions, can design ordinary constructions and apply a basic economic agenda. They acquire knowledge in the field of human resources management, business activity, law, teamwork principles and coordination of specialists from different professions within the preparation and implementation of constructions. They are able to apply basic theoretical knowledge towards a principled understanding of the issue of construction preparation and implementation and a flexible handling of organizational and technological tasks while respecting the principles of quality, occupational safety, environmental protection and economic efficiency of construction activity. The graduates of the study program will occupy positions in the construction of all types of constructions and the design of ordinary constructions. The graduates are qualified to perform all functions and activities in the preparation, implementation and renovation of all types of buildings and in the production of building materials and semi-finished products at lower levels.
