The study programme provides a comprehensive overview of building structures, both conventional and modern construction materials, their development and testing, as well as structural diagnostics and technologies for the rehabilitation of building structures. It also covers issues related to the environmental impact of buildings and construction materials. Graduates expand their knowledge and competencies in the following areas in particular: application of construction materials in building structures, their material compatibility and service life, relationship between construction materials and the required mechanical, physical, and thermal performance of structures, design and development of construction materials and raw material sourcing, production of construction materials and components, their range, and practical application, environmental impact of the entire life cycle of construction materials and structures, including recycling and principles of sustainable development, role of testing and quality management in the construction industry, structural diagnostics – requirements for structures, defects and failures, diagnostic methods for evaluating materials and structures, structural rehabilitation – repair methods for masonry, steel, concrete, and timber structures, including historical buildings, surface rehabilitation of structures, and assessment of repair materials, design and execution of building structures in relation to construction materials.

Graduates will find employment primarily in the construction industry, with a focus on building materials, structural diagnostics, and rehabilitation of structures. They may work in manufacturing, research, and testing organisations engaged in the development, production, and evaluation of construction materials and components, as well as in laboratories focused on materials testing and quality control. They also find significant employment in design and construction companies, where they contribute to the design and assessment of structures with respect to material suitability, durability, and compatibility. Typical roles include structural diagnostics specialists, rehabilitation technicians, production technologists, and quality management professionals. Further opportunities include positions in construction and engineering companies dealing with structural failures and building refurbishment, in the field of sustainable construction and recycling of building materials, as well as in public administration and specialised institutions focused on construction regulation, standardisation, and technical supervision.
