35 Master Programs in Civil Engineering in Asia for 2024

Structural and civil engineering are the oldest disciplines in engineering. The environment surrounding the civilization is rich in structures and objects designed and constructed by structural and civil engineers. The structures are used for dwelling housing, offices, industrial plants, shopping and entertainment centers, bus stations, railways and train stations, airports, seaports, etc.

Modern civil engineering professionals often require an extensive understanding of construction management due to the strategic benefits it can bring to both individuals and project teams. As the industry becomes more competitive, organisations and their clients are increasingly demanding the combined time, cost and quality assurances that good project management practice provides. Furthermore, the industry now recognises that there is a need for engineers to gain specialist technical knowledge that complements their academic and professional background.

This programme aims to upgrade existing construction-related professionals with the knowledge of advanced civil engineering, cost control and management and to produce experts in all aspects of cost engineering and civil engineering.

This course allows engineering graduates to specialize in the subject area of Master of Engineering in Structural Integrity, and also for practitioners in relevant technical and engineering-based fields to broaden their knowledge and understanding in all aspects of structural integrity (which they may not be quite familiar with), or to specialize further in this discipline.

Lac Hong University is an educational establishment with interdisciplinary and multi-level training programs, combining training with scientific research, technology transfer in the fields of engineering, technology, economics, and social humanities.

The Master of Science in Civil and Environmental Engineering program provides a comprehensive technologic and scientific preparation for engineers in following four key areas of Civil and Environmental Engineering, which are in perfect alignment with today’s technological challenges: Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, and Construction Management. By delivering an MSc at an international standard level, we are offering our master’s students future opportunities in terms of Ph.D. and positions in the research center.

Master of Science (MSc) in Mining Engineering degree is a specialized graduate program offered by the School of Mining and Geosciences (SMG) Department of Mining Engineering at Nazarbayev University. Students are required to complete 120 ECTS credits, in 4 semesters, which satisfies requirements stipulated by the Bologna Process and the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) for Master’s Degrees.

The programme covers the main civil engineering disciplines of Structures, Geotechnics, Water Engineering, and Highway Engineering, and provides students with the key skills and knowledge required to become chartered civil or structural engineers. After graduation, students are equipped to work for engineering consultants, contractors or government at management level. The core curriculum includes instruction in all main subject areas, concentrating on analysis and materials behaviour, with increasing focus on design and management in the specialisation years. Throughout, there is an emphasis on the personal development of students within a professional environment.

The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) Program focuses on strengthening students' knowledge in certain areas of Civil Engineering and exposing them to the issues involved in the conception, design, construction, maintenance, and use of structures and facilities. A candidate for an MPhil degree is expected to demonstrate knowledge in the discipline and to synthesize and create new knowledge, making a contribution to the field.

Energy Technology research covers many areas, including sustainable technology, conventional technology, and energy efficiency and conservation. The MPhil program focuses on strengthening students' knowledge in certain areas of Civil and Structural Engineering and exposing them to the issues involved in the conception, design, construction, maintenance, and use of structures and facilities.

A joint postgraduate program in Nanoscience and Technology, initiated by the Schools of Science and Engineering, can offer long-term support to our ongoing research and training as well as to the development of technology and to commercialization efforts. The MPhil program focuses on strengthening students' knowledge in certain areas of Civil and Structural Engineering and exposing them to the issues involved in the conception, design, construction, maintenance, and use of structures and facilities.

The Scientific Computation Concentration is open to research postgraduates in the School of Science and the School of Engineering.

Our Advanced Structural Engineering course is aimed at graduates and practising engineers. It's designed to help improve your knowledge of structural and foundation engineering. The degree has been developed together with a wide range of employers in the sector. So there's a strong relationship between the course and the engineering industry. The course also builds directly on staff research activities, which include experimental, numerical and theoretical work. You’ll have access to excellent practical and advanced computer and networking facilities too.

The MSc Civil Engineering programme incorporates all of the contemporary key elements of engineering design in the built environment.
