Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Civil

Civil Engineering Graduate Program – CEGP

Program Objectives:

The primary objective of the Master´s Program in Civil Engineering is to complement the formation of professionals (engineers, architects, urbanists, among others), capacitating them with theoretical and practical knowledge that effectively contribute for the sustainable development of Brazilian cities, especially regarding aspects connected to the constructed environment, urban planning, and infrastructure maintenance and managing.

Course:

MASTERS IN CIVIL ENGINEERING (Beginning in August of 2015).

Concentration areas and research lines:

URBAN ENGINEERING AND CIVIL CONSTRUCTION (Lines: 1. Sustainable Development in Civil Construction; 2. Urban Infrastructure).

Program Differentials (Strengths):

There is no Stricto sensu course in the region of Joinville that aims at the development of researches for use in solving problems in the scope of Urban Engineering and Civil Construction. This differential allows researches aimed at 1. The development and characterization of materials as components of sustainable constructions; 2. The development of techniques, processes, and methodologies aiming at the implementation and improvement of urban infrastructure using existing or new technologies for the construction of cities and maintenance of quality of life; 3. Analysis, planning, and proposal of technical and economically feasible solutions for the primary urban systems using planning and management techniques appropriate for Urban Engineering.

The central differential of the CEGP is the multidisciplinarity of the professor and students, as well as of the research projects interconnecting Urban Engineering with Sustainable Civil Construction.

Minimum formation and other requirements for ingress:

Candidates bearing a higher education diploma in Engineering or architecture and urbanism, authorized by the Ministry of Education – MEC, of full duration. Candidates bearing diplomas in areas correlated to the concentration area of the program can be accepted provided they be approved by the program collegiate.
