Master in Civil and Mechanical Engineering
Specialise in structural engineering, infrastructure planning, or advanced simulation for sustainable and resilient engineering solutions.
Best for:Best for engineering graduates seeking interdisciplinary expertise in structural or infrastructure systems, with strong industry connections and hands-on project experience.
Overview
The Master’s programme in Civil and Mechanical Engineering at the University of South-Eastern Norway offers a multidisciplinary approach to solving complex engineering challenges. Students gain expertise in advanced calculation and simulation tools, preparing them for careers in design, project management, and research. The curriculum allows specialisation in structural engineering (fatigue design, fracture mechanics, finite element methods) or planning and infrastructure engineering (water/wastewater modelling, transport technology). Industry collaboration, real-world projects, and international exchange opportunities enhance employability, with graduates earning the prestigious 'Sivilingeniør' title—a recognised mark of quality in Norway’s job market.
What you'll do
- Develop and apply advanced calculation and simulation tools used in industry to solve complex engineering problems.
- Specialize in either structural engineering (e.g., fatigue design, fracture mechanics) or infrastructure planning (e.g., water/wastewater systems, transport technology).
- Work on real-world projects, including laboratory assignments, simulations, and industry collaborations from the first semester.
- Conduct independent research for a master’s thesis (30 credits) in collaboration with companies or public sector partners.
- Collaborate in interdisciplinary teams, delivering presentations and academic writing under supervision.
- Engage with guest lecturers from industry to gain practical insights and build professional networks.
