Introduction
MSc Structural and Building Products Engineering offers top-level studies, that focus on training your intellectual curiosity and on developing a complex, broad approach towards construction engineering. At KTU, we educate engineers to not only acquire existing knowledge but also to develop new expertise on innovative technologies, solve problems in the field of construction, to implement real-world projects.
During the studies, you will deepen your knowledge of the various building structures’ design, you will master the advanced research methods. In the process, you will learn to easily operate the latest technologies in construction products and quality assurance techniques.
- Open access to KTU labs equipped with the information modeling (BIM) methodology and other technology for experimental research;
- The teaching in this study program is based on expert activities and creativity: non-standard, progressive thinking is encouraged.
*Studies are usually conducted in the evenings, but some academic classes take place during the day.

Career Opportunities
You may become
Construction researcher
These specialists carry out a wide range of applied research, consult on construction matters, perform activity analysis, supervise the organization of the process, evaluate the efficiency of construction, and promote innovative solutions.
Supervisor of construction works
These supervisors manage and coordinate the implementation of a project. They design high-reliability class buildings, reconstructions, and oversee the work of these projects.
Expert in construction works
These experts take care of the technical evaluation of a building, improve construction and engineering solutions, prepare technical documentation.
Manager of construction works
These managers ensure that a construction process is being carried out according to the design project (or part of it). They take care of the development and allocate responsibilities, coordinate processes with customers, and strive to do all this by following professional, ethical, and environmental standards.
