Master of Science in Structural Engineering

The Structural Engineer with a knowledge and understanding of material behaviour and structural actions, is able to design with economy and elegance, structures that fulfil their intended purpose, while safely resisting the forces to which they may be subjected.

However, with rapid advances in materials technology and availability of advanced computational techniques, the successful structural engineer must continuously update his/her knowledge and keep abreast with recent developments in structural engineering.

The Department of Civil Engineering at the 成人头条 aims to fulfil the need for Continuing Professional Development by conducting a Postgraduate Degree in Structural Engineering on a part time basis for practising engineers.

This course is conducted by the Division of Building and Structural Engineering of the Department. This division comprises experts in many aspects of modern structural engineering design. They have established a close relationship with industry through consultancy and contract research in such areas as concrete technology, fibre composites, structural dynamics, computational structural engineering and forensic engineering. Research in design methodology, tall buildings, shell and space structures and finite element analysis are also being carried out. It is intended to introduce Eurocodes within this programme.
