Construction engineers are expected to design and construct basic infrastructure for our everyday lives while at the same time respecting and improving sustainable development.

This Master’s degree programme aims to train experts in the field of civil and environmental engineering while taking into account sustainable development and the complex natural world in which their projects will take place.

The future civil and environmental engineer will acquire the necessary skills and knowledge to become:

• a professional engineer capable of integrating multiple fields of civil and environmental engineering
• someone with field experience who can put his/her knowledge into practice and put to good use civil engineering tools and techniques at the construction site or in the office
• a specialist in cutting edge methods used in civil and environmental engineering: construction, hydraulics, geotechnology, structures, materials and environment
• a manager capable of overseeing projects alone or as part of a team

The multidisciplinary training offered by the Louvain School of Engineering (EPL) emphasises a combination of theory and practice as well as analysis, design, manufacturing, production, research and development and innovation while never losing sight of issues related to ethics and sustainable development.
