通过该研究生课程，您可以对结构工程学进行详细的理论理解，以及如何将其应用于实际设计情况。这些包括结构对极端载荷的响应，例如风和地震。该课程集理论，应用和设计于一体。理论将连同其在高级软件和计算机建模，结构工程和BIM中的应用一起进行介绍，以便您了解它与现实问题的关系。结构设计是该课程的核心要素，为您提供扩展钢和混凝土结构知识的机会。高层建筑和桥梁为您提供了进一步的机会，可以在实际环境中将高级分析与设计集成在一起。
On completion of this programme you will be able to conceive, model, design and analyse a wide range of innovative structures and apply advanced concepts in structural engineering.<br><br>The distinguishing features of this programme are the integration of theory, design and application, and the response of structures to extreme loading (earthquake engineering and wind engineering). Integration is achieved by exploiting a computer modelling thread. This provides you with the opportunity to apply advanced structural analysis (finite elements, non-linear analysis, structural dynamics) using state of the art software. Using this platform, these techniques are applied within a practical context (steel structures, concrete structures, bridge engineering and earthquake engineering) which is developed further in a major design project.
