Civil Engineering

The academic master's program of Civil Engineering taught in English is to train globalization-oriented and international professionals, committed to exploring the innovative training mode for the international graduate students, attract the outstanding students from the world, and develop high-quality and professionally comprehensive talents in civil engineering.

Enrollment Advantage 

Civil Engineering is one of the first majors established in ZUST more than 30 years ago. After years of construction, the profession platform is steadily improving, and the strength of scientific research is increasingly growing. In 2008, Civil Engineering was recommended by Zhejiang Provincial Education Department and approved as one of the third batch of national characteristic specialty construction points. In 2010, Civil Engineering Lab Center was classified as experimental teaching demonstration center in Zhejiang Province. In May 2012, Civil Engineering passed the National Civil Engineering undergraduate education assessment held by Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the People’s Republic of China (MOHURD), and became the first major that has passed the professional assessment in Zhejiang University of Science and Technology, ZUST. In June 2012, Civil Engineering was funded as the key discipline by the Zhejiang Provincial Twelfth Five-Year Plan. In January 2013, the construction of academic master’s program of Civil Engineering passed the qualification check.

Civil Engineering discipline carries out international exchange and cooperation positively, broadens the international educational channels to enhance cooperation with oversea universities. So far，the partner universities are German Jade University of Applied Sciences, Georg Simon Ohm University of Applied Sciences Nuernberg, Coburg University of Applied Sciences, San Francisco State University, and France Cergy-Pontoise University and so on. The main programs include Civil Engineering International Program (San Francisco State University)，Double Degree Program (Luebeck University of Applied Science), Sino-France Joint Program (Cergy-Pontoise University).
