Summary of the Profile
General Description:
Objective(s) of a study programme:
Train specialists of building engineering systems able to accomplish independently complex work requiring personal responsibility in the fields of installation, maintenance and repairs of modern building engineering systems; to design heating, ventilation and air conditioning and water supply and sewage disposal systems using energy-efficient technologies and alternative energy sources; to carry out a business company’s (division’s) or individual activities by formulating and reasoning the solutions in civil engineering; to develop general abilities for life-long learning, working in a team, creative and critical thinking, analysing and generalizing the results of their work.
Learning outcomes:
1. To know the general processes and phenomena of natural sciences that explain the processes of natural and technological environment as well as the regularities and laws of mathematics and engineering sciences necessary to understand the fundamental foundations of the field of civil engineering.
2. Know the most important concepts of the field of civil engineering, their content, legal regulation, design methodologies and the basics of building information modelling, formulating and performing design tasks according to the defined requirements.
3. Apply general knowledge of engineering sciences and civil engineering in analysing and solving modern structural, technological and project-related problems of building engineering systems.
4. Carry out research in the field of building engineering systems using analytical modelling methods, experimental, laboratory and industrial equipment; process testing and laboratory work results necessary for solving problems of building engineering systems design and modernization and provide practical findings of the results using information technology, software and databases as well as other sources of scientific and engineering information.
5. Design heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and water supply and sewerage systems, applying energy efficient technologies and alternative energy resources; assess the impact of engineering equipment on the building construction project and its implementation and prepare project estimate documentation.
6. Plan, organize, perform and assess the work of building engineering system renovation, installation, management as well as maintenance and repairs by selecting independently innovative technological, organizational, safety and structural measures taking into account the principles of occupational safety requirements.
7. Understand organizational principles of construction activities, aspects of project implementation and management in the level of engineering and assess professional decisions of a civil engineer in terms of the ethical, social, economic, environmental and human safety perspective.
8. Apply communication and cooperation skills working in groups and teams; provide construction engineering problems and solutions in writing and orally in standard Lithuanian language and at least one foreign language.
9. Organize and execute business (branch) activities, apply professional knowledge, take responsibility for the quality of personal and subordinate’s performance.
10. Learn independently in the field of professional activity throughout one’s life, to understand the moral responsibility for theimpact of one’s activities and their results on society, to maintain the values of a business company, ensuring a personal and corporate image.
Activities of teaching and learning:
Lectures, seminars, discussions, ractical work, problem-based learning, project preparation, case analysis, group work, demonstration, information search and analysis, consultations, professional practice, etc.
