Structures

Core Courses

The Master's program consists of four semesters, or two years of study. This specialty focuses on training students in the analysis of structures, their strength, stability, and static and dynamic equilibrium. Courses are organized into lectures, tutorials, and practical work.

The courses offered are organized into semester-long teaching units (TUs) covering fundamental, methodological, cross-curricular, and introductory subjects. Each teaching unit may include several "subjects." Semester 4 is reserved for an internship or introductory research project, assessed by a final dissertation and a public defense.

Master's programs in civil engineering structures may include courses in solid mechanics, strength of materials, foundations, geotechnics, concrete structures, steel structures, and timber structures. A significant portion of the program is devoted to design and calculation projects. Through a balanced combination of theoretical foundation and practical experience, these programs provide in-depth scientific and technical training, often focused on specific skills such as modeling, structural analysis, and project management. The program emphasizes innovation and problem-solving, with courses taught by experienced professors and reinforced by practical projects, laboratory work, and collaborations with industry.

With a curriculum aligned with international standards and taught partly in English, this program is ideal for students seeking:

·        A solid academic foundation in civil engineering, structural analysis, and infrastructure design

·        International exposure through research and industry collaborations

·        A path to exciting careers in construction management, urban planning, transportation engineering, and sustainable infrastructure development.

Advanced Topics

This training aims to prepare executives for the civil engineering, construction and public works sector in general, as well as executives for companies, design offices and expert firms. The academic Master's degree in civil engineering aims to provide students with a specialized scientific and technological foundation. This guarantees mastery of academic and practical knowledge in various fields of construction. Future graduates with a Master's in Structures have diverse options, including working in a technical design office to design and calculate structures, in a construction company to monitor works in progress for expert firms, or in public administrations. They can become site managers, design office engineers, project managers, or even project owners. Entrepreneurship and business management.

This Master's degree provides students with basic scientific and specialized training, enabling them to access higher degrees through the possibility of pursuing a PhD (LMD) in various Civil Engineering specialties, enabling them to become university lecturers and scientific researchers.

Indeed, this field is experiencing a promising boom in terms of employment and research, as it is undergoing rapid technological development, particularly with regard to the creation of new materials. These materials, of course, require the introduction of new technologies, new business methods, and new delivery methods, managed by specialized executives.
