Professional Master in Structural Design of Tall Buildings (PMTB)

PMTB is a flexible learning approach combining online and in-class aspects of learning. The program is designed keeping in view the recent dominance of tall building projects and the need for engineers to be equipped with better tools and skill sets to design safer structures. The focus of the program includes advanced knowledge of state-of-the-art methodologies, techniques, and tools that can be applied in the structural design of tall buildings. Developing your design and leadership skills to formulate innovative systems and solutions, on-the-job learning wherein the student can benefit from experiential learning by doing a variety of assignments, aligned with the student’s existing professional commitments.

The program is directed towards practicing engineers with a minimum of three years of relevant experience. it will also provide an opportunity to do project work at leading structural engineering/infrastructure companies in South East Asia as well as in-class sessions conducted by professionals from leading structural engineering companies.

PMTB is offered by the Civil and Infrastructure Engineering (CIE) Department, School of Engineering and Technology. The online course content will be delivered through the e-learning platform in the form of video, audio, image, slides, apps, and links. Further teaching support will also be provided through video conferencing, instant messaging, email, and file sharing. The in-class component of the program will provide the student with a one-on-one interaction platform with faculty as well as industry experts. The in-class sessions will also include seminars on special topics to be delivered by invited experts, lab visits, and examinations.
