This programme is designed to train the next generation of civil engineers with the expertise to design and implement innovative building technologies with a focus on sustainable materials and structures. The main objective is to educate future leaders in the development of innovative solutions for sustainability and performance in the built environment by fostering creative and independent thinking and promoting low-impact oriented problem-solving.

This is done by providing a solid background in fundamental mechanics, coupled with cutting-edge research in innovative materials and structures, and a research and development environment in the private sector. This blend of solid fundamental skills, innovative research and link to the private sector is the perfect environment to train engineers who are able to provide innovative solutions to the global today’s challenges.

The programme, which is taught in English over two years, requires a high degree of mobility since all students will study in three different countries: Germany, Italy and France.

The three partner institutions are:

  • TU-Dortmund University - Faculty of Architecture and Civil Engineering | Germany
  • University of Trento - Department of Civil, Environmental and Mechanical Engineering | Italy
  • Centrale Nantes - Department of Mechanics, Materials and Civil Engineering | France

Erasmus Mundus scholarships covering tuition fees, living expenses and travel costs and consortium scholarships, covering part of the tuition fees, are available. Apply by 15 March to be considered for a scholarship.
