Purpose of the study programme

The study program is designed to convey the basics of the profession of a building engineering systems specialist and to form the professional and general skills necessary for independent work and successful career, in a modern labour market environment. The study program includes the following areas of activity: design of building engineering systems, their installation, organization and execution of maintenance and repair of building engineering systems, organization of business enterprise (department) activities.

BES Study Programme aim – train specialists of building engineering systems able to accomplish independently  complex work requiring personal responsibility in the fields of installation, maintenance and repairs of modern building engineering systems; to design heating, ventilation and air conditioning and water supply and sewage disposal systems using energy-efficient technologies and alternative energy sources; to carry out a business company’s (division’s) or individual activities by formulating and reasoning the solutions in civil engineering; to develop general abilities for life-long learning, working in a team, creative and critical thinking, analysing and generalizing the results of their work

BES Study Programme Learning outcomes

Description of learning outcomes of the study cycle Learning outcomes
Knowledge and abilities 1. To know the general processes and phenomena of natural sciences that explain the processes of natural and technological environment as well as the regularities and laws of mathematics and engineering sciences necessary to understand the fundamental foundations of the field of civil engineering.
2. Know the most important concepts of the field of civil engineering, their content, legal regulation, design methodologies and the basics of building information modelling, formulating and performing design tasks according to the defined requirements.
Abilities to carry out engineering analysis and research 3. Apply general knowledge of engineering sciences and civil engineering in analysing and solving modern structural, technological and project-related problems of building engineering systems.
4. Carry out research in the field of building engineering systems using analytical  modelling methods, experimental, laboratory and industrial equipment;  process testing and laboratory work results necessary for solving problems of  building engineering systems design and modernization and provide practical findings of the  results using information technology, software and databases as well as other sources of scientific and engineering information.
