Overview
This Structural Engineering programme offered by Lund University focuses on principles for designing and dimensioning structures in buildings and infrastructure, considering loads, material behaviour, and long-term performance. It supports research into structural elements in materials such as concrete, steel, wood, and masonry, with emphasis on reliability and resistance to damage, deterioration, and environmental impact over time.
Key Facts
The academic environment combines theoretical, computational, and applied approaches, integrating coursework, supervision, and independent research. Training enables the ability to analyse structural systems, optimise construction solutions, and contribute to the development of efficient, durable, and competitive building systems.
