Bachelor in Civil Engineering

A graduate of the Civil Engineering bachelor study program demonstrates knowledge, skills, and knowledge:

• theoretical, technical, artistic, geodetic, ecological, sociological, demographic, and economic disciplines relevant to construction practice
• construction legislation and related activities
• related fields, building physics, chemistry and material engineering
• methods of data collection and analysis
• on the use of buildings by persons with reduced mobility
• building technology
• the prevention of risks and the adoption of measures to eliminate them or to reduce their consequences in the preparation of the works; implementation and maintenance

Furthermore, the graduate demonstrates an understanding of the social context of construction practice, the operation of buildings, and their economic and environmental impacts (environmental impacts). The graduate is able to apply the acquired knowledge in individual subjects in the given thematic area or specialization.

Graduates can:

• analyze and synthesize problems within the building organization and building production
• use technical, geodetic, economic, and artistic procedures to solve problems of construction practice
• design, implement and manage the performance of construction activities
• elaborate, if necessary. participate in the elaboration of project documentation of buildings, land-use planning documentation, and relevant parts of land-use planning documentation
• carry out static and dynamic structural calculations
• carry out structural engineering or engineering surveys
• carry out testing and diagnosis of structures
• issue expert opinions
• prepare documentation and assessments for partial assessment of the environmental impact of buildings
• lead the construction
• carry out geodetic measurements for design work and alignment work
• perform authorial or technical supervision of the construction
• to represent the builder, resp. the petitioner on the basis of authorization in territorial, construction, or occupancy permit proceedings
• to perform professional functions in the field of building regulations or spatial planning in state administration bodies
• to carry out an analysis of the implementation of buildings from the perspective of a safe workplace on the site
• design buildings, including in terms of safe use and maintenance of buildings, etc.

Graduates of the bachelor's study program in Civil Engineering have acquired the latest scientific and technical knowledge in a complex of their mutual connections. He/she is able to apply the acquired knowledge in individual subjects in the field of study specialization. He/she is able to perform functions requiring a separate solution to more complex engineering or managerial problems. The application in practice is expected in technical or managerial positions requiring the ability to independently perform more demanding professional tasks in the design and operation of buildings. He/she can work in designing or implementing companies, in the area of public administration or other similar technical levels. After gaining practical experience, the graduate can also hold higher managerial positions. engage in private business in the construction industry.

Knowledge of foreign languages in the area of expertise is a prerequisite for eventual activity abroad.

Key learning outcomes

During the course of their four years of study, graduates from the Civil Engineering bachelor’s study program gain knowledge, skills and understanding from theoretical and specialized disciplines targeted at individual fields of study. They are capable of applying the knowledge gained in the individual subjects in dealing with the issues specific to the given subject areas.

They are able to: prepare, or participate in the preparation of construction project documentation, or the preparation of land use planning materials and relevant parts of land use planning documentation; perform static and dynamic calculations for structures; carry out technical construction and engineering surveys; perform testing and diagnostic analysis on structures; publish expert opinions; prepare documentation and reports for individual evaluations of the influence of a structure on the environment; manage the realization of a structure; carry out geodetic surveying for projects and demarcation work; act as construction inspector in the capacity of the author of project documentation or as a site manager during the realization of a structure; act as the authorised representative of a developer or designer during proceedings connected with land use planning, construction permission and building acceptance; act as a specialist employed in a department dealing with the building code or land use planning in organs of state administration, etc.

What Degree Programme Types May Have Preceded

The Bachelor's Degree Program Civil Engineering Is Followed by A Follow-Up Master's Degree Program Civil Engineering, Etc. Graduates May Also Continue to Study Another Similarly Oriented Follow-Up Master's Degree Program.

A graduate of the Civil Engineering bachelor's study program is able to hold positions requiring independent solution of technical problems in the field of civil engineering.

Its application in practice is expected in technical or technical-managerial functions requiring the ability to independently perform demanding professional tasks in the planning, design, construction and operation of buildings. He is well placed to work in science and research. He finds employment as a site manager, a project manager, as a person competent for the preparation of buildings. He / she can work in designing, implementing and administrative companies, in the field of public administration or at another similar professional level.

After gaining practical and managerial experience, the graduate can also hold higher managerial positions, respectively. to pursue private business in the field. After completing the prescribed practice, the graduate can obtain an authorization as an authorized engineer in the field of water management and landscape engineering awarded by the Czech Chamber of Authorized Engineers and Technicians in Construction.

The study program is designed to enable graduates to continue their studies in the follow-up Master's degree programs.

Its knowledge of foreign languages in the area of its expertise is a prerequisite for eventual activities abroad.

Access to further education

Graduates may continue their education through a consecutive master’s study programme, where they may gain the title Ing. About graduates’ knowledge of foreign languages in their specialized area they can study for a master’s degree either in the Czech Republic or abroad.
