Our Doctoral School hosts the Master of Research study program on the topic of Interactions in the built environment, organized within the Technical University of Civil Engineering of Bucharest. The admission to this Master of Research is based on a competition held in September, at the beginning of each academic year. This postgraduate study program was designed to provide advanced training of excellence in the field of Civil and Building Services Engineering.
The program is addressed to civil and mechanical engineers that want to pursue their career with doctoral studies or want to achieve advanced engineering skills by contributing to an industry-focused research project and identifying solutions to existing and emerging civil and infrastructure engineering problems
The main professional skills proposed by this Research Master, essential for the development of a research career in Engineering, are:
– Identification, definition, and description of a relevant research topic
– Knowledge and application of the principles of measurement, visualization, and data acquisition in order to carry out a research project
– Knowledge and application of mathematical modeling in order to carry out a research project
– Acquiring the basic knowledge necessary to participate in a research project in the field of hydraulic engineering and the built environment
– Drafting the results of a scientific research program in an appropriate scientific format
– Supporting a dissertation thesis related to a research topic
The Master program Interactions in the built environment offers graduates a wide openness to different fields of research of Civil and Mechanical Engineering due to its concept – Learning Research by Doing Research. In addition to this basic principle, the master’s degree proposes three other very important principles, namely: Flexibility of Education, Personalized development of learning methods, provided by Mentors for each student, and each research topic.
The proposed research master is oriented towards three main directions: Fluid Dynamics and interactions, Indoor environment of low-energy buildings, Resilience of the built environments. The master’s covers four semesters. Students will attend a series of compulsory courses in fundamental and specialized disciplines, a series of optional courses in parallel with the development of a research project. The applications and mentoring of research projects will be provided by a special team of teachers, among whom are distinguished confirmed specialists in experimental and numerical techniques.
Possible research themes for dissertation projects:
The graduates from the Master of Research study programs hosted by the Doctoral School can equate the optional subjects included in the program of advanced academic training within the doctoral study program.
