Building and shaping their environment has always been one of people's original needs. In addition to protective dwellings, religious buildings and representations have always been erected.

With industrial development, building has taken on a new dimension. For traffic routes such as roads and railways with bridges and tunnels also more and more functional buildings such. Halls, schools, railway stations, industrial plants and towers.

More details about Faculty of Civil Engineering:

The design of the cities and the individual buildings was always shaped by the social views and architectural currents of the respective epoch.

The needs of our time and new technical possibilities influence today's design and construction. Building materials with completely new properties, sophisticated calculation and visualization methods as well as innovative building technologies enable modern architectural solutions and generously designed buildings.

All this places high demands on the training of future civil engineers. In addition to basic knowledge, more and more specialized knowledge in planning and designing must be taught.

Building permeates many areas of daily life. Only those who consider the requirements for aesthetics and serviceability, ecology, energy and cost efficiency will be able to compete in the future.

From the faculty life

Renowned civil engineers and architects have been presenting their research and practice projects at the Dresden Construction Seminar since 1993 in regular succession.
