The Master's Degree in Civil Engineering (hereinafter MUICCP) enables the holder to pursue the profession of Civil Engineer, while main objective of the Master's Degree in Concrete Engineering (hereinafter MUIH) is to provide a broad understanding of concrete as a building material, as well as the skills necessary for the analysis and design of concrete structures. Both these degree programmes, however, have many points in common.
Consequently, this double degree allows students to acquire the skills of both programmes through an integrated course, which both costs less and takes less time than obtaining both masters individually. Thus a student, rather than studying 120 ECTS on the MUICCP and 90 ECTS on the MUIH, will obtain a total of 165 ECTS on one single course, a saving of 45 ECTS and one teaching semester.
