Features and aims of the course

 

The course provides the cultural and scientific knowledge necessary to work in the building sector, as well as the theoretical and practical training to become a professional design engineer. The main peculiarity of this course is represented by the innovative link between the engineers’ scientific-technical knowledge and architects’ historical, humanistic, and aesthetic mastery, which generates a cultured and flexible designer, able to apply correctly a wide range of competencies. A masterly constructor, with a broad knowledge and able to monitor the complete building process, including the analysis, the design phase, and the construction site supervision.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

This study path is considered strategic as it is the only course that enables engineers to sign restoration and integration projects of listed buildings. In addition to traditional subjects, which focus on the building activity, the course pays particular attention to restoration. For this reason, beside typical and fundamental exams, essential to train design engineers, the course provides a series of optional exams which widen the panorama of future job opportunities by addressing students towards three different professional profiles.

YOUR FUTURE CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

The course is recognised at European level. Moreover, it is the only course that entitles graduate students to undertake the State examination for authorisation to practise as both, an Engineer and Architect, and to practice the profession/work in all the European Union countries. Graduate students in Building Engineering Architecture are highly competent and qualified and have access to a wide range of professional opportunities, hold posts corresponding to a particularly high degree of responsibility in institutions, private and public administration authorities and bodies, architecture offices, and engineering companies.

STRENGHTS OF THE COURSE

It entitles graduate students to undertake the State examination for authorisation to practise as both, an Engineer and Architect, and is immediately valid in all European Union countries.
Research laboratories are provided with modern equipment, also thanks to the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research contribution, which awarded the Department of Civil Engineering and Building Engineering Architecture with the title of Department of excellence.
Students are involved in the analysis of issues concerning current big society challenges, such as hydrogeological and seismic risks, heritage protection and valorisation through design projects, restorations and IT, and environmental mitigation through projects focused on sustainability and resiliency. This degree is considered particularly strategic in Italy as it is the only course that enables engineers to sign restoration and integration projects of listed buildings.
