Overview

This Sustainable Structural Engineering at Linnaeus University master’s programme will put you among those who will be able to develop the future principles of sustainable construction.

Key Facts

Today, ever more challenging, and exciting structures are being built around us. Examples of such are tall and slender buildings or structures with a long span. This trend will most likely continue and, in parallel, there are increasing demands for structures that are sustainable in the long term. To succeed as a structural engineer in the future, you must have an in-depth understanding of the possibilities and limitations of different materials, construction elements, and systems. On the programme, you will be challenged intellectually with advanced theories for analysis but also by practical applications, for you to be able to take part in the shaping of a sustainable future.

You will be among those who will be able to develop the future principles of sustainable structural engineering.

Career

Engineers who are highly skilled in computational mechanics have good opportunities to get qualified work assignments at a broad range of different companies. Examples of such are small and big consulting firms and production companies that wish to further develop their products. A master’s degree from the programme is also a solid foundation for PhD studies.
