Graduate profile

Description
Study program Structural and Transport Engineering (SP STE), second degree of study, is focused on education in the field of designing, constructing and operating the load-bearing structures of engineering and building constructions, traffic structures made of concrete, steel, timber and from other materials, as well as for solving geotechnical issues. Graduate of the study program meets the expectations of the practice, the labor market and society for the performance of the profession and has developed abilities to educate independently.
Learning objectives
Graduates of the master's degree in the study program Structural and Transport Engineering (SP STE) will acquire the knowledge, skills and competences necessary for deepening and expanding the basic and specialized theoretical training for designing, constructing and operating the load-bearing structures of engineering and building constructions, traffic structures made of concrete, steel, timber and from other materials, as well as for solving geotechnical issues. Emphasis is placed on the graduate acquiring the necessary knowledge for the theoretical analysis of engineering and building structures, enabling him to design safe, user-friendly, durable and aesthetic structures with the widest possible application of computing technology. An important part of comprehensive training is the development of independence and creativity, so that the graduate, after adequate practice, can manage a team of workers, know how to independently lead even large projects and can take responsibility for their complex technical solutions. An integral part of the graduate profile of this study program is experimental and diagnostic works, as well as methods and procedures for evaluating the obtained data.
