Civil Engineering (Master)

The Civil Engineering Thesis Master’s Program at Fatih Sultan Mehmet Vakıf University is designed to train highly qualified civil engineers equipped with advanced theoretical and practical knowledge beyond the undergraduate level. The program emphasizes the development of a deep understanding of civil engineering principles and the ability to conduct scientific analyses of current developments, innovations, and practical applications in the field. Students are expected to acquire the competence to critically evaluate engineering problems, generate innovative solutions, and interpret complex data using modern tools, including information and communication technologies and relevant engineering software.

The curriculum combines core civil engineering disciplines—such as structural analysis, geotechnics, transportation, hydrology, and construction materials—with interdisciplinary approaches. Through research-driven coursework, seminars, and a master’s thesis, students enhance their academic proficiency and gain experience in conducting independent research. The program also fosters skills in teamwork, project management, and scientific communication, preparing graduates to contribute to both academia and industry with expertise, ethical awareness, and innovative thinking in the evolving landscape of civil engineering.
