Program Description | Structural Engineering master Program is a series of career-focused courses taught by practicing engineers and university professors provides professional engineers in-demand skills used in the field of seismic engineering. Program provides advanced concepts of earthquake engineering, seismic analysis of buildings, and design and detailing of steel and concrete structures. Information is provided for both new and existing buildings. |
Program Content | In this master program particular attention is paid to performance-based seismic design and assessment of concrete and steel construction. The module will start from the fundamental theory of structural dynamics and earthquake engineering. It will then gradually cover linear and nonlinear structural analysis methods and their application to simplified and rigorous performance-based seismic design and assessment of steel building structures. Relevant seismic design guidelines in seismic-codes will be thoroughly covered. It is emphasized that the course includes an introduction to aspects of structural dynamics relevant to earthquake engineering for students who lack this pre-requisite knowledge. The Module is based on a combination of Lectures (theory) and Computer Lab Sessions (computational implementation of the theory). It involves the use of the commercial software SAP2000 as well as MATLAB. Step-by-step tutorials for using the software and MATLAB will be provided. |
Career Perspectives | The career path for an earthquake engineer typically begins in an entry-level engineering position such as a junior engineer or design engineer. With experience and improved skills, they can progress to more senior roles such as project manager or chief engineer. With experience and recognition, you may be able to move into specialist roles such as seismic design consultant or seismic code specialist, or you may have the opportunity to work in various areas of the engineering industry, such as infrastructure, transportation and energy. This career path also offers the opportunity to transition into related fields such as disaster response, risk management and structural safety. |
