The department of Civil Engineering at Bursa Uludağ University was founded due to decision no. 2695 of Higher Education Council on Nov 24, 1994. Master of Science in Civil Engineering program opened in 2011-2012 academic year.

Civil Engineering Master’s Program requires successful completion of 11 cours. The degree of (non-thesis) Master of Science in Civil Engineering is awarded to who have successfully completed all the courses .

Second Cycle

In order to be admitted to the non-thesis Master´s program, it is necessary to have a Bachelor´s degree in Engineering and Architecture and to have the ALES exam result, the lower limit of which is determined by the university senate.

The provisions in “Regulation on Transfer among Associate and Undergraduate Degree Programs, Double Major, and Subspecialty and the Principals of Credit Transfer among Institutions in Higher Education Institutions” are applied.

The aim of Civil Engineering (non- thesis) Graduate Program at Bursa Uludağ University is to provide its students with better engineering skills, capacity for research, originality of thought, management skills and ability to implement their knowledge into practice. The Civil Engineering Department with highly qualified faculty members and improving facilities is able to accomplish its objective of providing graduate studies.

Many students has graduated from Civil Engineering Master’s Program at Bursa Uludağ University. Graduated and current registered students of the Civil Engineering Master’s Program are working at the private companies or government organizations.
