Education
Division of Building Materials
We teach on the five-year programmes in Civil Engineering (civilingenjör i väg- och vattenbyggnad), Architecture (arkitektutbildning) and Fire Safety Engineering (civilingenjör i brandteknik) and on the three-year programme in Civil Engineering, Architecture (högskoleingenjör i byggteknik med arkitektur) at Campus Helsingborg.
In our first cycle courses courses we give an overview of the most relevant material properties, materials used in construction and the properties of these materials.
In our second cycle courses, the emphasis is on understanding relationships in the field of materials of a more basic nature, such as phase diagrams and kinetic models.
