MA in construction engineering
The engineer specialised in construction is trained in all
aspects of construction: knowledge of strength of
materials and stability lead to economical building. By studying different structures and constructions, from
roads to bridges, from sewer systems to houses, metal
and concrete buildings, combined with practical laboratorial works he is able to design, construct and
maintain constructions. Topography for planning and Hydraulic Engineering for
maintenance of river and canals complete the fields of
study.
The civil engineer can have different tasks in industry:
designer, calculator, team leader or consultant,
construction supervisor, maintenance manager… Therefore the master study in construction not only
focuses on the enhancement of knowledge of the
bachelor studies, but focuses on items as law and
planning, soils, and the use of advanced techniques such
as GIS-systems and Finite Elements.
Two study options (minors) are available in the bachelor
construction, which lead to two master studies:
construction and land surveying.
MA in electro-mechanical engineering | automotive engineering, energy and automation
The engineering study in electro mechanics or electro
technology not only focuses on the enhancement of
knowledge of the bachelor studies, but tackles advanced
items so as to prepare the engineer for career as
designer, production manager or technical expert.
In electro mechanics the minor
focuses on the techniques in automotive applications and
the minor studies machine design
and all sorts of thermo-mechanical energy.
In electro technology the minor focuses
on control systems and applications of totally integrated
automation and the minor studies
electrical energy in all its forms, from basic electricity to
applications, production to distribution and industrial
installations.
The master study stimulates competences of
acquirement of information, of communication, problem
solving and research ability. In the master thesis these competences are evaluated.
MA in biochemical engineering
As a result of the multidisciplinary character of the chemical industry the study program is a balanced
integration of chemistry in industry, chemical process technology and electromechanics. Therefore
can act as polyvalent process engineer in different tasks in industry: design, production,
management,…
For the master in industrial sciences, there is a strong
accent on practical problem solving and innovation
instead of a theoretical approach. By focussing on
research based process innovation in the master, our
chemical engineer should be able to introduce innovative
technologies and solutions in the design and
optimalization of industrial chemical production units in
different industrial branches (petrochemistry, fine
chemistry, food, pharmaceuticals, environmental
technology,…).
Based on the common bachelor of industrial sciences:
chemistry, together with the knowledge on biosciences,
act as a traditional engineer
in industrial biological processes. Both the production of
biomolecules, the use of micro-organisms in industrial
processes as the control of micro-organisms are well
studied.
As a result of the typical character of the biotechnology a
strong accent on laboratory skills, research methods and
interpretation of experimental data is present in the study
program. Genetic engineering, analytical biochemistry
and toxicology can be mentioned as typical examples.
The master studies stimulates competences of
acquirement of information, of communication, problem
solving and research ability. In the master thesis, where
the student actively participates in industrial and
technological research, these competences are
evaluated.

MA in engineering in electronics-ICT
The master study in electronics-ICT not only focuses on
the enhancement of knowledge of the bachelor studies,
but tackles as well advanced items in order to prepare the
academic engineer for a career as designer or
technical/scientific expert.
Enhancement of knowledge and competences in the
fields of analogue and digital electronics,
telecommunications, signal processing and information
technology are the cornerstones of the programme.
In a broader context image processing, industrial
networks, product certification and management of
information systems is introduced.
This is achieved through research based lectures and
lab-sessions.
