EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
6В07179 – Engineering and management of transport highways
The goal is to train highly qualified specialists with in-depth theoretical knowledge and practical skills in the field of design, construction, operation and management of transport routes, capable of solving complex engineering problems and ensuring the sustainable development of transport infrastructure.
6B07179 program is the combination of engineering preparation and management competencies across the lifecycle of transport highways: from design and construction to operation, diagnostics, maintenance, reconstruction, and modernization. The program covers both railway and road corridors, as well as artificial structures. Its curriculum includes project management, estimating, infrastructure condition monitoring, and digital design tools such as CAD, BIM, GIS, and artificial intelligence. The program’s profile comes from bringing these areas together in one educational pathway.
Graduates of the program will be able to:
- apply mathematical and mechanical methods to calculate and justify engineering decisions;
- use the results of engineering surveys and account for the properties of soils, materials, and structures in design;
- develop solutions for the construction, maintenance, repair, reconstruction, and modernization of railway and road corridors;
- use CAD, BIM, GIS, and digital technologies to design, monitor, and assess the technical condition of transport infrastructure;
- organize construction and operational processes and plan schedules, resources, and costs;
- assess the safety, quality, economic efficiency, and environmental sustainability of design solutions;
- analyze monitoring and diagnostic data and use it to plan required works.
Graduates can work for design, construction, operation, and road maintenance organizations; transport infrastructure companies; quality control and technical supervision units; and engineering or research organizations.
Potential roles include design engineer; transport highway operations engineer; railway track, road, or artificial structures maintenance engineer; survey engineer; cost estimator; quality control engineer; production and technical department engineer; diagnostics and monitoring engineer; process engineer; site supervisor; construction superintendent; and project specialist or project manager. Positions such as site manager, project lead, and department head generally require relevant industry experience.
