Overview

The goal of the MSc Advanced Computational and Civil Engineering Structural Studies at TU Dresden is to impart knowledge leading to research competence and to high level engineering skills based on an individual choice of modules by the participants. ACCESS is designed to develop unique, current knowledge and competence in the field of computational mechanics and structural analysis closely related to advanced civil engineering design.

ACCESS seeks to facilitate the development of a strong knowledge base in the field of computational mechanics and structural analysis, working collaboratively with advanced civil engineering design. Technical innovations for challenging engineering tasks rely heavily on numerical simulation tools. Therefore, the goal of the programme is to provide the skills for understanding, modelling and analysis of these approaches in the broader context of application and design by focus on:

state-of-the-art computational mechanics
current numerical structural analysis
research in structural modelling and analysis
current developments in civil engineering design

advanced construction methods
