Lage ETH Zurich - Swiss Federal Institute of Technology
The master degree programme in Civil Engineering at ETH Zurich allows graduate students to choose two out of the six specialised courses available:
- The course in Construction Engineering and Management involves Planning and Management (project and process management), Construction Techniques and Business Management.
- The course in Geotechnical Engineering focuses on Soil Structure Interaction, Environmental Geotechnics, Civil and Underground Engineering, Stability Analysis (soil slopes and rock walls), Modelling and Building Methodology.
- The course in Structural Engineering comprises Engineering Design, Computation, Construction and Maintenance of various structures (buildings, bridges, towers, etc) made of concrete, metal, wood, synthetics, glass or in combined form.
- The module on Transport Systems focuses on their design and operations, but further options addressing planning issues are available. The required and recommended elective courses cover: Transport infrastructures and their maintenance, traffic impacts, simulation of transport systems, public transport system design and operation, transport planning and concepts.
- The course in Hydraulic Engineering looks at water-power plants, reservoirs, flood protection, river engineering and water resources management.
- The course in Materials is directed towards fundamental understanding of any type of material; the aim is engineering and development of new materials.
Inhalte
A wide range of electives allows graduate students to either specialise further in the direction they have chosen or to broaden their knowledge overall. Graduate students will carry out some project work to strengthen their scientific knowledge and to gain work experience as civil engineers.
Graduate students must have 120 credit points (in accordance with the European Credit Transfer System) having successfully completed all the subjects chosen. A master thesis, carried out over a 16-week period, focuses on one of the specialised courses chosen.
Graduate students, who successfully complete the master degree programme, are awarded the title Master of Science ETH in Civil Engineering.
Most of the lectures will be held in German.
The seminar work done in the first semester is an integrating activity into the Master Programme in Civil Engineering. It focuses primarily on a conceptual design task. The work is carried out in interdisciplinary groups, and provides an introduction to different working procedures and their application.
Projects
Projects are written up in the 2nd and 3rd semesters on a topic relating to both of the specialised courses (majors) chosen. Project topics are made known by the tutors. Graduate students should register for a specific topic at the Civil Engineering Administration Office. More information on the German page.
Master Thesis
The last semester (16 weeks) of the master degree programme is spent working on the master thesis. The professor in charge of the specialised course selected acts as a tutor during the preparation of the master thesis. Graduate students should sign up directly with their foreseen tutors for a specific topic before the end of the 3rd semester.
A master thesis deemed satisfactory (the lowest mark accepted is 4.0) is given 24 credit points. A master thesis deemed unsatisfactory can only be repeated once. In such cases another topic must be chosen and it is also possible to change to another tutor.
Anforderungen
To be eligible for admission to a Master programme at ETH Zurich you need to have a high-quality Bachelor degree or an equivalent first academic degree from an internationally recognised university. The degree must be in a related subject to the Master programme you wish to apply to. Your previous studies must comply in quality, depth and breadth with the requirement profile of the Master programme.
On request, applicants to ETH Master programmes need to provide evidence that their degree entitles them to access Master studies in the same field at their home university, if such a programme is available, or at a university in their home country. This requirement applies in particular to candidates of non-Swiss universities and university-level institutions which are not entitled to confer Master and/or doctoral degrees (e.g. Brazil: Facultades; Scandinavia: University Colleges).
If you have not yet completed your Bachelor programme you can still apply and be admitted upon the condition that you obtain your Bachelor degree before the start of the desired Master programme.
