The Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to Master of Science) degree in Building Engineering for Sustainability prepares a senior Building Engineer with an interdisciplinary scientific and technical background and skills to address the cross-cutting challenges of sustainability and digitalization of the built environment. Our graduates are high-profile professionals, able to cope, competently and creatively, with the challenges of sustainability of the actual and future transformation of the built environment, in accordance with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the European climate neutrality targets by 2050.
The four specialization tracks correspond to four professional profiles, those for which our graduates are most appreciated:
- BES-S - Strutture, tecnologie, materiali (taught in Italian)
- BES-D - Innovazione digitale delle costruzioni (taught in Italian)
- BES-F - Innovative envelope and facades (taught in English)
- BES-M - Performance Modeling and Design (taught In English)
The two tracks taught in Italian, BES-S and BES-D, refer to the predominantly national demand for professionals able to ensure the structural safety and resilience of new and existing buildings, but also to innovate and make the entire construction process more efficient thanks to digital technologies. The two tracks taught in English, BES-F and BES-M, on the other hand, train professionals in areas where most of the businesses operate on an international scale, both abroad and in Italy.
The goal is to ensure both our Italian and international graduates have the best employment opportunities, both for those who decide to stay and work in Italy and for those who want to gain experience abroad.
Graduates in Building Engineering for Sustainability are mostly employed by architecture and engineering design and consulting firms as well as by construction and maintenance, services and facilities firms and manufacturers of building materials and components. They are also employed by Public Administrations, property management and quality control services and are appreciated as private consultants. Several career opportunities are continuously arising from the innovation development trends that characterize the construction sector today.
