The Master’s Degree Program in Civil Engineering aims to train professionals who can identify, understand, and solve the main problems typical of this branch of engineering.

The education provided enables graduates to work in various areas of interest, such as new and existing constructions (civil and industrial buildings, major infrastructure projects like road and rail bridges, dams, underground works) and infrastructure (transport networks, seaports, airports, water collection, distribution, and disposal systems, and earth-retaining structures). The program combines practical and theoretical concepts with advanced and innovative design and analytical skills, allowing students to tackle complex and novel situations typical of the Civil Engineering profession with confidence.

The Master's program also provides conceptual, analytical, and computational tools for assessing and mitigating risks from natural events, a field of increasing importance due to climate change.
