Qualification level

SQF Level: SQF 8
EQF Level: EQF 7
EOVK Level: Second level

Learning outcomes:

The qualification holder will be able to:

General competences:

  • the ability to combine fundamental knowledge with the problem of planning, designing, construction and building of construction works, and design of construction products,
  • the ability to manage projects and project teams independently,
  • the ability of greater creativity and innovation as the result of broader knowledge of the field while at the same time focusing on individual sub-fields,
  • the ability of internal communication within the organisation and external communication with the partners and clients home and abroad, in processes constituting the entire life cycle of the construction works,
  • the ability to analyse, synthesise and anticipate solutions and consequences,
  • the ability to solve the most difficult of practical problems by using scientific methods and procedures,
  • good command of research methods, procedures and processes, the development of critical and self-critical assessment and of the ability to seek optimum solutions in given circumstances,
  • the ability to use state-of-the art knowledge in practice,
  • the development of communication abilities and skills, especially communication in an international setting,
  • cooperativity, team work, work in an international environment.

 

Subject-specific competences:

  • the understanding of the fundamental fields of civil engineering from the point of view of information flow and structure: architecture and structure of construction work, building technology, construction projects in terms of product and process life cycles, systems in construction works and the functioning of construction works (installation), management of construction works,
  • the understanding of the basics of civil engineering IT:
  •  Programme engineering and programme interoperability
  •  Data and knowledge (collection, structuring, analysis and use)
  •  Digital models and building information modelling (BIM) and space modelling (GIS)
  •  Virtual design and construction, visualisation (including VR/AR)
  •  Computer-supported communication and collaboration
  •  Automatization in construction (including robotics applications)
  • the ability to use the knowledge of civil engineering IT in construction projects and to solve demanding problems in civil engineering:
  •  Specification of IT demands and formulation of computer-supported solutions
  •  Analysis of the state of IT-support in project consortiums (determining the level of development of civil engineering IT and interconnectivity of the partners’ technologies)
  •  Organisation and management of IT support for all stages of a buildings life cycle (planning, construction and management)
  •  Re-engineering and automatization in all stages of a building’s life cycle
  •  Independent and creative performance of tasks from the field of civil engineering.

Assesment and completion:

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). 

Progress:

The student will progress to year 2 if he/she accumulates at least 45 ECTS from the exams passed in year 1.

 

Progression:

Third-cycle doctoral study programmes (SQF level 10)

Conditions for obtaining a public document:

The study course is completed by those students who complete all of the obligations under the study programme and thus accumulate at least 120 ECTS credits.
