Course details
As Qatar enters next phase of large scale development, the economical use of construction resources and technologies and the development of sustainable designs and materials will be of prime importance to a sustainable management of civil engineering structures. Research opportunities for a Master of Science in Civil Engineering program will be generated by the current faculty research work in structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, civil engineering materials, and water resources.
The mission of the Master of Science in Civil Engineering program in the College of Engineering is to prepare students for careers in private and public sectors and for advanced level in research that leads to high scholarly achievements, and advanced knowledge. The major emphasis of the program is to foster a deeper understanding of the engineering research process and learn the professional skills.
The structure of the Master of Science in Civil Engineering program is unique, as it helps the engineers become more effective technical specialists, and strengthens their ability to lead people and projects. Conducting original research is an important goal of a Master program study in the College of Engineering, Qatar University. Research provides a type of education not available through classroom teaching. The Master of Science in Civil Engineering program is designed to enhance students' competencies in contributing to the existing body of knowledge and to innovation and creation of new knowledge. Students are expected to equip themselves with strong theoretical and methodological foundations and to develop their ability to independently conduct research.
