International Master's Programme in Advanced Computational and Civil Engineering Structural Studies (ACCESS)

Master

About the Program

ACCESS seeks to facilitate the development of a strong knowledge base in the fields of computational mechanics and structural analysis, working together with advanced civil engineering design. Technical innovations for challenging engineering tasks rely heavily on numerical simulations. Therefore, the programme aims to provide the skills for understanding these approaches as well as modelling and analysing in the broader context of application and design. The focus is on theory and application of computational mechanics, as well as research in numerical structural analysis, current developments in civil engineering design, and advanced construction methods.
