Master’s Degree in Engineering (M.Eng.) Field of Study:
Civil Engineering Technology (Including Civil Engineering,
Offshore Engineering, and Transport and Logistics Engineering)

Master’s Degree in Engineering (M.Eng.) Field of Study: Civil Engineering Technology. The Master’s program in Civil Engineering Technology is an integrated curriculum designed to develop graduates with the ability to solve engineering problems, focusing on knowledge applicable in the industry. It aims to develop students into “Professional Engineers (PE).” The program is conducted on weekends, and additional review materials are available through recorded video lectures. The curriculum includes practical application topics and emphasizes subjects that can be directly applied to various projects. Courses cover areas such as structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, construction management, offshore engineering, transportation, and logistics. Students can choose between an Independent Study course (6 credits) or an in-depth thesis (12 credits), depending on individual preferences. The program is taught by experienced faculty members alongside renowned researchers to provide students with up-to-date and global knowledge from research, which can be effectively applied in practical settings. Students can choose from three specializations:

  1. Civil Engineering
    • Suitable for those interested in becoming professional engineers in the construction of buildings and infrastructure.
  2. Offshore Engineering
    • Ideal for those interested in the design and construction of offshore structures, including drilling rigs, production platforms, pipeline systems, and subsea oil or gas transport. It also covers exploration and drilling technologies and offshore structure management.
  3. Transportation Engineering and Logistics
    • Designed for those interested in analyzing, designing, and managing transportation systems and logistics operations. This includes traffic network management, road safety, and transportation and logistics policies.

Eligibility for Admission

Applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree in engineering, industrial education, or another field as approved by the program committee.

Career Opportunities for Graduates

Graduates can pursue careers as civil engineers, offshore engineers, and transportation and logistics engineers in both public and private sectors. They may work as project managers in civil engineering, offshore engineering, transportation, and logistics, as well as academic researchers and experts in these fields. They could also take roles as designers or project owners in civil engineering, offshore engineering, or transportation and logistics.

Program Structure and Study Plan

The Master’s Degree in Engineering with a specialization in Civil Engineering Technology has a standard duration of 2 academic years. The minimum study period for the program is 1 year, and the maximum is 5 years from the start of the first semester of enrollment. The program is divided into two plans: Plan A: Requires students to complete a thesis worth no less than 12 credits. Plan B: Requires students to complete a research project worth 6 credits.

  • Study Plan A: Plan G2 (Thesis)

This study plan requires a total of no less than 37 credits throughout the program. Students must complete at least 25 credits of coursework and undertake a thesis worth no less than 12 credits. The course structure is as follows:

Course Type Number of Credits
Required Courses 4
Major Elective Courses 15
Elective Courses 6
Thesis 12
Total Credits for the Program 37
  • Study Plan B: Independent Research (6 Credits)

This study plan requires a total of no less than 37 credits throughout the program. Students must complete at least 31 credits of coursework and are not required to complete a thesis but must undertake a research project worth no less than 3-6 credits. The course structure is as follows:

Course Type Number of Credits
Required Courses 4
Major Elective Courses 15
Elective Courses 12
Independent Research Project 6
Total Credits for the Program 37

Notes

For both Plan G2 and Plan B, students must complete at least 15 credits in major elective courses and ensure a total of no less than 37 credits throughout the program.
