The study programme “Structural Engineering and Seismic Design” enables education of staff in the field of civil engineering, in the domain of structural engineering, including exploring modern methods of analysis, design and evaluation of structural systems for the effect of vertical and seismic loads as well as other specific types of static and dynamic loads. Acquired within the frames of this study programme is knowledge of a wide spectrum of specific sub-fields in the field of structural engineering and seismic design.
In the course of the educational process, the students acquire knowledge in the field of modern numerical methods of analysis, expertise, design and evaluation of structures and engineering structures as well as adequate basic education in the earthquake engineering field for structures of the type of buildings with different structural systems (reinforced concrete, steel, masonry, buildings with mixed structural system, etc.) and a large number of complex engineering structures of different categories (bridges, dams, special structures, infrastructure systems, etc.).
Upon completion of the studies, the students are able to execute complex design tasks in the field of design and technological improvement of stability and safety of different types of civil structural systems.
