Master's study programme with Full-Time Mode of Study (continuing) in Czech

Study aims

The structure of the three-semester follow-up Master's degree program in Civil Engineering - Building Management is based on the tradition of long-term study programs at the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Brno University of Technology (hereinafter referred to as “Faculty of Civil Engineering”). Czech Republic) and in the European Union (EU).
The content of the study program is designed to meet the requirements of:
- Act No. 111/1998 Coll., on Higher Education and on the Amendment to Other Acts, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the “Higher Education Act”),
- Government Regulation No. 274/2016 Coll., on Standards for Accreditation in Higher Education,
- Government Regulation No. 275/2016 Coll., on Education in Higher Education
all in accordance with the methodological materials of the Board of the National Accreditation Office for Higher Education and the documents of the Brno University of Technology (hereinafter “BUT”) and the Faculty of Civil Engineering of BUT.
The study program is taught in the Czech language in full-time form of study and is designed for graduates of bachelor's degree programs at universities and non-university technical universities in the Czech Republic and the EU. The content of the course builds primarily on the knowledge of the graduates of the four-year bachelor's study program Civil Engineering with a specialization in Civil Engineering at the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the BUT. The study program also enables student mobility and part of study at other selected universities with a similar focus.
The aim of the proposed follow-up Master's study program Civil Engineering - Civil Engineering Management with a standard length of study of 1.5 years is that the graduate of this program:
- found employment in the field of study,
- be able to creatively develop knowledge gained through study,
- succeeded in the competition of graduates of similar educational institutions not only in the Czech Republic but also in EU countries,
- could be authorized under Law No 360/1992 as an authorized engineer,
- has the necessary language skills,
- could continue his studies in doctoral programs,
- acquired the necessary theoretical, professional and practical knowledge and skills in the field of civil engineering, which are based on the current state of scientific knowledge, research and development, on mastering their applications and developing the ability for independent creative activity of students of this study program.
During the first and second semesters the student gains further deepening of theoretical knowledge, especially from the technical subjects, which is a necessary prerequisite for further development of his / her professional knowledge and abilities. The study plan gradually includes other specialized engineering courses, in which more detailed knowledge of new approaches to the solution of civil engineering problems will be acquired. When solving the assigned tasks, the course is led to apply the latest knowledge of science, construction technology and technology. Under the professional and methodological influence of his teacher, he is motivated to an independent creative approach and at the end of his studies under his leadership he elaborates a diploma thesis demonstrating his creative erudition. The three-semester follow-up Master's study program Civil Engineering - Management of Civil Engineering extends the knowledge of theoretical, civil engineering and economic-managerial disciplines acquired in a bachelor's degree specialized in civil engineering management.
After passing the final state examination, the graduate is entitled to use the title “engineer” (abbreviated to Ing. before the name).

Specific admission requirements

Prerequisites and co-requisites of the knowledge corresponding to the bachelor's study of civil engineering specializing in construction management, focused on the knowledge of basic technical subjects and branch-related knowledge of construction-technical subjects, construction-economical and managerial subjects and the basics of construction law.

Key learning outcomes

A graduate of the follow-up master's degree in Civil Engineering - Management of Civil Engineering can comprehensively work with construction engineering, construction economics, construction management and legal knowledge in projects. He is capable team work in project management of buildings and qualified work on projects focused on construction company management. He can analyze the outputs and results of such projects and, if necessary, propose strategic measures.
