Institute of Structural Mechanics and Design
You can find our Master’s degree courses by subject here: facade engineering, structural analysis and energy. We also offer additional courses and a focus on constructive glass and facade engineering.
Everything revolves around the façade in our department. From parametric design to the development of details, you will gain insight into the most diverse parts of the building envelope.
Statics doesn’t have to be static! We also have other subjects on offer, such as Structural Dynamics, Artificial Intelligence in Civil Engineering, Glass Construction, and Polymer Materials.
We analyze active and passive measures on residential and industrial buildings so that they can be designed to be climate-friendly in future. This includes the manufacturing and deconstruction phase with resource-saving raw materials, the operation of energy-efficient plant technology, and the options for energy generation through the use of free space on the building side.
In the German environment, this scientific focus is the only one offered for civil engineering at a university. In contrast to other programs at other locations, a comprehensive scientific engineering education is focused here.
