Master of Science in Structural Engineering

  • Duration : 2 years (4 Semesters)
  • Course Fee : Rs. 400,000.00

The ‘Master of Science in Structural Engineering’ programme provides an innovative approach to manage complex problems with an integrated perspective. The proposed curriculum hopes to train Civil Engineers to apply their technical understanding of systems in engineering, design, and implementation to develop strategies to make economical, healthy, and sustainable environments.

The programme is developed based on the present strength of the Department of Civil Engineering by leveraging resources from established areas of Structural Engineering, Soil Engineering, and Materials Engineering. It will be conducted with comprehensive collaboration with the industry in order to meet the contemporary requirements. The traditional areas of structural engineering are closely linked to programmes in construction and design, whereas the emerging areas such as sustainability and green construction are linked to all engineering disciplines.
