2. General presentation of the study programme

Graduates in Civil Engineering work in the field of constructions and infrastructures. Examples of constructions are buildings, bridges, tunnels, dams and the structural parts of industrial and power plants. Infrastructures encompass roads, railways, airports, water supply, treatment, and distribution systems, wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal systems, works ensuring the safety of land and environment.

In the two years Master’s Degree Program, students complete their training in Civil Engineering and achieve a technical preparation of a level adequate to meet the demands and challenges of the world of work. This is in line with the education system of most European countries, where the second level degree, obtained after five years of university studies, is definitely preferred, or even explicitly requested, to enter the professional world.

Accordingly, the subjects taught in the Master’s Degree Program aim at strengthening the basic preparation of the students, providing them, at the same time, with a deepened knowledge of topics central to Civil Engineering. It is believed that, today and even more in the future, civil engineers will have to face different problems with a critical attitude, which implies possessing the ability to grasp and manage their fundamental aspects in depth. In fact, one of the primary tasks of higher education is making graduates capable of specializing themselves: such ability has an intrinsic value, irrespective of the purpose of training.

Several areas were identified, among which students can choose their field of specialization: Geotechnics, Hydraulics, Structures, Transportation infrastructures, and Earthquake Engineering. Suggested study plans help students define their curriculum in these areas (or ‘tracks’). Three of the tracks: Geotechnics, Structures, Earthquake Engineering are taught in English. The other ones include courses mostly taught in Italian.

 


3. Learning objectives

3.1 Field of specialization: Earthquake Engineering

The earthquake-related devastations and tragedies in Italy are unfortunately following one another regularly. Yet, every new earthquake repeatedly highlights two aspects that contribute to the persistence of high seismic risk in the national territory: the lack of education of population to seismic risk as well as the lack of preparation of technical cadres, both at the private and public level. These two aspects, clearly inter-related, find a common denominator in the lack of attention to education on seismic risk at every school level.

The track dedicated to Earthquake Engineering within the Master's Degree in Civil Engineering has the ambition to put the Politecnico di Milano in a leading position towards a new attitude on training University students on seismic risk. This is obtained by proposing the figure of an engineer who, well rooted in a structural preparation suitable to operate in engineering studies, as well as in public technical offices, has gained his/her skills in various fields of application of earthquake engineering: from the design of new structures, to assessment and retrofit of existing structures, to interventions on historical building, to the evaluation of the seismic stability of the territory, to the analysis of the effect of the superficial geology on the amplitude of the seismic shaking, to the definition of the seismic actions for structural analysis. A professional figure who also has gained the expertise of the most modern experimental techniques, both for structural analysis and for seismic zonation. Such a figure of engineer is so far absent in the Italian professional scene, but it will also have many opportunities to be appreciated abroad. As a matter of fact, not only state-of-art theories and techniques developed and taught in Italy are definitely at the cutting edge of the international arena, but also the track will be entirely proposed in English.


3.2 Field of specialization: Geotechnics

Geotechnics is the branch of Civil Engineering that deals with all the engineering problems involving geomaterials (i.e., soil and rock), either when they constitute by themselves the mechanical system to be studied (slope stability, excavations, mining activities, subsidence and earthworks like dams, waste tips or embankments), or when they interact with civil structures (shallow and deep foundations, retaining structures, tunnels, underground pipelines, marine structures). Geotechnical engineering studies these systems both under static and dynamic conditions (e.g., considering the action of earthquakes, wind, waves and vibrating machines).

Geotechnics is a discipline combining notions concerning Structural Mechanics and Hydraulics, with the main goal of achieving engineering predictions on the response of the soil and the structures interacting with it and, eventually, to guarantee a proper design of these structures.

A Geotechnical engineer is called to participate to any type of technical problem of Civil, Environmental and Building Engineering that involve soils and rocks. This role may be played either as an independent professional, as an employee of the public administration, or as a consultant in private companies. In order to deal with the broad range of activities mentioned above, a solid background in basic Soil Mechanics is necessary (provided e.g. within the Bachelor’s Degree Program in Civil Engineering). In addition, advanced courses will be necessary in order to study in depth different topics. In particular, the curriculum includes advanced courses on the mechanic behaviour of soils under complex loading conditions and its mathematical modeling; the mechanical response of rock and rock discontinuities, numerical methods for the evaluation of displacements within soils, foundation settlements, pore water pressures, and earth thrusts against retaining structures; design criteria for foundations, retaining structures and tunnel linings; geotechnical problems of interest for the environment, such as slope stability analysis, slope stabilization techniques, and design of waste disposal areas, among others.

Beyond this large array of technical capabilities, it is worth mentioning that geotechnical engineers must be able to interact with a variety of other specialists, such as environmental, structural, hydraulic and transportation engineers, architects, urban planners, geologists, and all other professionals that may need expertise in many different fields. It follows that during the Master’s Degree Program, besides classical Geotechnical Engineering courses, a selection of elective courses on related disciplines will be offered, allowing students to define their study plan according to their own preferences.


3.3 Field of specialization: Hydraulics

Water resources, either natural or modified by human activities, are a key point for the development and welfare of any society. In recent years, the increasingly frequent alternation of dryness periods and high intensity rainfall events posed fundamentals and conflicting issues to Hydraulic Engineering. On the one hand, the inhomogeneous regional and seasonal availability of water requires the preservation of water resources and the optimization of their exploitation. On the other hand, the possibility that flood or other natural events cause damage to the land and the infrastructures makes it necessary to protect from flood risk areas adjacent to rivers and, from hydrological risk, hills and mountains. The teaching activities of the specialization in Hydraulics aim at training engineers capable of dealing with these issues.

Hydraulic Engineers must have skills on the design and management of any structure aimed at exploiting water resources (wells, water supply systems, hydroelectric plants, irrigation systems…) and returning them in a way compatible with the land and the environmental quality (sewers, sewage treatment plants, soil remediation). They must also be able to provide adequate security in areas exposed to flood and hydrological risk by means of river basin management and slope accommodation. The skills of Hydraulic Engineers in the hydraulic protection of the land make them among the main actors in the field of Civil Protection.

The need to integrate properly the projects in the urban and natural landscape requires a close interaction between Hydraulic Engineers and the Public Administration (Municipalities, Provinces, Regions, Basin Authorities, etc.).

The proper knowledge of the theoretical aspects of Hydraulics is an essential prerequisite for the design and management of effective technical solutions; for this reason, the teaching activities include courses that frame from a theoretical point of view the motion of fluids in conveyance systems and the configuration of the corresponding civil and industrial plants, the dynamics of free surface water and groundwater, the different forms of interactions between fluids and structures.

The design and the management of the works require the knowledge of other disciplines which, together with the traditional courses of Hydraulic Engineering, help complete the formation of Hydraulic Engineers, allowing them to investigate other fields of action.

Hydraulic Engineers find extensive employment opportunities both as freelance workers and as employees of engineering companies or the Public Administration, where, in areas related to the defense of the land and to the Civil Protection, Hydraulic Engineers can act both as designers and as managers.


3.4 Field of specialization: Transportation Infrastructures

The curriculum in Transportation Infrastructures is widely matched by the higher education studies in the most important international schools of engineering. The curricular layout aims at a high specialization addressed to the field of transportation infrastructures: roads and highways, railways and subways, airports, interports and intermodal nodes, maritime harbours, waterways and river harbours, stations and transport terminals, cable-driven transports, and innovative movement systems.

A part of the curriculum is specifically devoted to the design stages of transportation infrastructures, from the initial feasibility studies, through the preliminary project, till the final executive project. At the same time, the infrastructure construction theme is fully developed through the in-depth study of construction materials and organization of complex construction sites. During the education path in transportation engineering, the wide variety of topics related to the management of services and mobility infrastructures is furtherly developed and deepened, through specific courses dealing with planning and maintenance issues. Subjects concerning the initial stages of planning and mobility strategy of people and freight are also part of the curriculum.

The complexity of large infrastructure works requires an interaction with structural, environmental and land planning engineering, as far as bridges or viaducts, environmental impact problems, and design constraints are concerned, respectively.

The elective courses available can further focus the global preparation on these specific aspects. The provided qualification allows graduates to work as professionals, members of building companies, employees in the public administration or in public transport management services. Topics pertaining to Civil Engineering related with infrastructures, however, represent a core issue if compared to management aspects.


3.5 Field of specialization: Structures

The main purpose of this specialization is to provide students with the basic knowledge and capabilities concerning the analysis and design of bearing structures. Both general and more specific subjects relevant to the structural design of civil constructions, such as buildings, bridges, dams, tunnels and foundations, are proposed to the students. Other structural problems, which can be found in fields different from Civil Engineering, are also dealt with during the degree program. Beside Civil Engineering, the acquired knowledge allows graduates to work in any engineering field in which structural problems are important, such as aerospace, naval, mechanical, nuclear, industrial, and transportation engineering.

The studies in Structural Engineering are also strictly related to emerging technologies and innovative materials (composites, laminates, high performance concretes, etc.). New structural problems of increasing industrial and economic interest are emerging in many and greatly diversified fields: these include e.g. microsystems, biomechanics, fluid-structure interaction, coupled (multi-phase) systems, diagnosis of damaged structures and retrofitting of historical buildings.

It should be remarked that Structural Engineering has originated the discipline of computational mechanics through the development of the Finite Element Method that, in the last decades, has methodologically and practically renewed the whole spectrum of engineering and applied sciences, and is the basis of most modern computer assisted design procedures. Nowadays Structural Engineering is still giving new developments and applications for modern computational methods. Graduates in that followed the Structural Engineering curriculum are highly appreciated by public and private sectors of Civil Engineering and by many fields of Industrial Engineering, which confirms the positive experience, cumulated in various decades, of this curriculum.

The second year of the track “Structures” comprises three suggested study plans, consisting of a group of courses in common and another group of elective courses that allow students to deepen their training in one of these fields: Design of new structures, Assessment of existing structures, Advanced structural analysis

5. Professional opportunities and work market

5.1 Professional status of the degree

Civil engineering deals with constructions and infrastructures. Constructions include buildings, the civil part of industrial constructions, and major works such as, for example, bridges, tunnels, and dams. Infrastructures includes roads and transportation networks, systems of water collection, distribution and disposal, and works to ensure land and environmental conservation. The civil engineer oversees the design, the construction, and the operation of these works, and performs their survey and control. The skills of the civil engineer also enable to deal with the study of particular problems peculiar to industrial engineering.
The M.Sc. in Civil Engineering provides an adequate level of in-depth study and specialization on topics central to civil engineering. The two-year M.Sc. program deals with broad problems in the field of civil engineering, as well as specific applications related with geotechnics , hydraulics, transportation infrastructures, and surveying and control. The characterizations meet the needs of the market, at both the national and European levels, which requires technical figures fully corresponding to the specializations offered in the characterizing fields.


The skills achieved by graduates in Civil Engineering in the different specializations offered at Politecnico di Milano are described in Sections 2 and 3. Passing the Professional Exam enables Civil Engineers having a Master’s degree to practice as Engineers in the Civil and Environmental areas. Unlike graduates having a Bachelor’ degree, the Master’s degree avoids graduates to be subjected to any legal constraints on the size and importance of the works they can design as professionals. The level of specialisation achieved allows civil engineers to work in the field of the analysis and design of structures or infrastructures with special safety requirements, or requiring the use of highly sophisticated analysis and design methods (offshore structures, power plants, bridges and long span roofs, tall buildings, tunnels, large-scale excavations, etc.).

SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL COMMUNICATION (Soft Skills)

Objective: helping students to organize an autonomous technical work (in particular with reference to the final thesis) and provide the essentials for an effective communication of technical and/or scientific contents.
Contents: how to find technical information: the principal available scientific database, the keywords selection; how to build and write a bibliography. How to write a scientific report: table of contents, structure, and tools (Latex). How to present the work in an effective way: structure and tools of a presentation. How to write a CV.


SOCIAL IMPACT, RISK AND RESPONSIBILITY OF TECHNOLOGY AND ENGINEERING (Soft Skills - Humanities)

Objective: developing in students an awareness of the close link between engineering achievements and the life of society.

Contents: interactions between people, institutions and material structures aimed at the development of technologies;issues of social justice, gender, privacy, security, control related to technological innovation; multiple approaches to risk theories; perception and communication of risk; ethical aspects of cost-benefit analyzes; decisions in conditions of uncertainty; responsibility for both past choices and future consequences.


7.3.1 POLIMI Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures


Politecnico di Milano aims at strengthening the skills related to Smart Infrastructures in the Master of Science degree programmes.

 

The goal is to create a new professional profile, theAmbassador in Smart Infrastructures: a MSc graduate with forefront systemic skills, interdisciplinary vision, digital skills, specific aptitude to innovation. The Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures profile corresponds to a professional figure with both advanced, specialized skills in relevant applications (infrastructures) and/or enabling technologies (smart), as well as transversal skills, which allow students to broaden their knowledge in the field of Smart Infrastructures and to adopt a systemic approach to design, management, innovation, and study of life-cycle of infrastructures.

 

The training programme is articulated within the MSc educational path, and sets at 130 credits (thus at least extra 10 credits in addition to the standard MSc requirements) the minimum number of credits needed to complete the selected MSc and, at the same time, to qualify for the certification of Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures.

As part of the educational training, students must acquire at least 30 credits in courses related to the Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures profile, which have to be chosen among those proposed in the degree programme or among additional courses, as detailed in the specific information.

The Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures certification will be reported in the Student’s Diploma Supplement and and an electronic badge will be issued by Politecnico di Milano.

Students who will not obtain the required extra 10 credits and the 30 credits in training activities functional to the Ambassador in Smart Infrastructures profile will not be precluded from obtaining a MSc degree.

7.4 Foreign language

According to Ministerial Decree 270/04, Politecnico considers English to be the European Union language that students must know in addition to Italian.
Starting from the academic year 2006/2007, all students admitted to a Master of Science must possess at least the level in according to parameters indicated in the notices of the Student Services Area of Politecnico di Milano.
