The qualification holder will be able to:

(general competences)

  • plan and implement construction works with regard to adequate quality and price and carry out independent technical evaluations on the basis of scientific analysis and synthesis,
  • undertake creative work in a team of construction planners and construction contractors,
  • integrate the basics of engineering economics and environmental protection issues with issues of planning structures and construction products,
  • show greater creativity and innovation as the result of interdisciplinary study,
  • apply knowledge in practice,
  • analyse, synthesise and anticipate solutions and consequences,
  • master the basics of research methods, procedures and processes, develop critical and self-critical assessment,
  • develop communication skills and abilities, including communication in the international environment,
  • demonstrate a capacity for ethical reflection and a commitment to professional ethics,
  • show cooperativeness and work in a group, in both interdisciplinary and international environments,

(subject-specific competences)

  • demonstrate mastery of knowledge from the field of planning, organisation, management and leadership of construction works and construction manufacturing, construction informatics, ecology, urban planning and environmental policy,
  • demonstrate familiarity with and understanding of the foundations and historical development of construction science (subject: "Introduction to construction"),
  • communicate within an organisation and outside it with partners and customers (subjects: "Ethics and engineering", "Organisation of construction"),
  • resolve individual (less complex) work problems through the application of scientific methods and procedures,
  • autonomously determine the dimensions of construction elements, but not connect them into wholes (buildings), and are therefore not yet able to plan complete buildings,
  • autonomously and creatively perform specific (less complex) tasks in the field of civil engineering, perform individual more complex tasks within a group and assist in the management of existing technological procedures within the activities described in the first indent and update them,
  • demonstrate coherent mastery of basic knowledge (natural sciences, mathematics, informatics, mechanics, construction materials), integrate knowledge from various fields and apply it;
  • use information and communication technologies and systems in their fundamental and basic professional field,
  • place new information and interpretations in the context of the fundamental discipline,
  • demonstrate understanding of the basic structure of the fundamental discipline and the links between its sub-disciplines,
  • develop skills in the application of knowledge in a specific professional field.

Students' knowledge is assessed by means of practical exercises and seminar papers, and also via products, projects, performances, services, etc. and by examinations. Examination performance is graded as follows: 10 (excellent); 9 (very good: above-average knowledge but with some mistakes); 8 (very good: solid results); 7 (good); 6 (adequate: knowledge satisfies minimum criteria); 5–1 (inadequate). In order to pass an examination, a candidate must achieve a grade between adequate (6) and excellent (10). 

Students may enrol in a higher year if by the end of the academic year they have met all enrolment requirements defined by the study programme.

Second-cycle master's study programmes (SQF level 8)

In order to complete the programme, students must complete all course units prescribed by the programme for a total of at least 180 ECTS credits.
