Master Program in

Civil Engineering- Structure

Introduction:

The graduate program of Civil Engineering- Structure at Kish campus of University of Tehran is aimed at training highly skilled professionals in structural engineering with the academic and engineering credentials.

The curriculum provides a strong basis for advanced professional practice and research. A particular highlight of the taught component of the course is studying the behavior and design of structures against extreme loading including fire and earthquake.

Structural engineering deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the load carrying components of civil engineering infrastructures: buildings, bridges, highways, airports, power plants, dams, underground structures, ocean structures, and protective structures. The capacity of withstanding exceptional loading events such as unintentional overloading, hurricanes, earthquakes, and man-made hazards and the ability of being durable, reliable, and economical affordable during the entire life-cycle are the two main issues at the forefront of modern civil engineering.
