Master's Degree in Engineering Studies in Brazil

View Masters Programs in Engineering Studies in Brazil 2018

Engineering Studies

A masters is earned after students complete an undergraduate degree program. To obtain a masters, you usually need to complete 12 to 18 college courses that often involve completing comprehensive tests and/or a thesis.

The process of creating and maintaining new machines, structures and more using mathematics as well as social, economic and scientific knowledge is known as engineering. There are many subdivisions of engineering dealing with everything from the environment to electricity.

 

Brazil, officially the Federative Republic of Brazil, is the largest country in both South America and the Latin American region. It is the world's fifth largest country, both by geographical area and by population, with over 193 million people.

The course

The Civil Engineering graduate course can be accomplished in five years (10 periods) and is structured to provide the classic theoretical foundations and the most modern advanced techniques applicable to problem solving in the area.

The course provides the student with a solid background in the area of ​​operation, growing in scope due to the constant technological evolution of the modern world, highlighting the non-aggression to the environment and participation, increasing of civil engineers in management activities , management and planning. Every day, there are many and profound changes, due to the development of new materials and technologies, and the creation and adoption of new analytical methods, influenced by the use of computers. Therefore, the Civil Engineering field of activity has expanded and extrapolated the traditionally preferred areas (structures, geotechnical and transportation, water resources and construction materials)....

Why clay minerals?

Interest in clays results from their common availability, and their unique physical and chemical properties. No other minerals currently attract so great an interest.

In addition to their conventional ancient use as bricks, tiles, ceramics and for paper coating and waste management more recently, clays have found many novel applications. Clay minerals have provided a boost in technology because they are inexpensive nanomaterials, and as such, they have a huge potential for the synthesis of polymer nanocomposites with superior mechanical and thermal properties. The optimisation of adsorption, colloidal and rheological properties also opens prospects of using clay minerals for medical uses, pollution control, and environmental protection. Clay minerals play a role in economic geology (both as an important mineral resource and in energy resource exploration) and soil management. Clays also have many negative effects in geotechnical engineering, manifested in the form of landslides, mudflows, and the deterioration of clay-based construction materials.... [-]
