Master – Civil Engineering

The areas of intervention of the Master's degree in civil engineering are vast, ranging from building energy, to structural calculation, to environmental management.

In this context, the Building and Environmental Sciences department is strengthening the structure of the Master in Civil Engineering in order to respond to the demands of the professional world, mainly within the framework of design office type structures.

The mission of the Master's degree in Civil Engineering is to welcome and upgrade, if necessary, students from a Bachelor's degree in civil engineering with a civil engineering and energy course, or other scientific training at a Bachelor's level, and to lead them through semi-professional training. , semi-theoretical, and internships, to integrate their future professional fields.

The Master's degree can also remain a springboard into the field of research, in particular by directing a third of the training towards preparation subjects for the field of research and dedicated projects. The support of the Master's degree to the PIMENT laboratory thus makes it possible to consolidate this orientation. Collaborations with international laboratories are also possible.

The Master SIC is a scientific training of excellence from the University of Reunion whose main objective is to strengthen and complete the knowledge and skills base of our future young graduates in the disciplinary sectors of civil engineering , the environment and even energy.

This training at the interface between applied and fundamental sciences will be particularly suitable for students with a deep appetite for managerial professions in the field of construction as well as for scientific research.

Learning within this Master's degree is organized around the following methods: continuous assessments, project-based learning, digital pedagogy, professional simulation.

Field studies will be favored for the specialty courses taught in Master 2.

Particular attention is paid to the acquisition of transversal skills essential today in the private/public sector such as mastery of English, oral communication, public speaking. Thanks to compulsory internship periods over a total duration of eight months in a company or in a research laboratory, students will learn to mobilize and put into practice all the skills acquired during their university studies.
