ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM

Programa orientado a la formación de profesionales en construcción y obra civil para el desarrollo de proyectos de infraestructura sostenible.

The Construction and Civil Engineering program at Rumiñahui University focuses on training professionals capable of designing, planning, and executing construction and civil works projects through a comprehensive approach that encompasses various technical, regulatory, and management aspects. Students acquire skills in key areas that enable them to perform effectively within the construction industry.

 
Throughout their training, students learn to design and plan construction and civil works projects by developing detailed blueprints, performing structural calculations, and evaluating the economic and technical feasibility of projects.
 
This program enables professionals to:
 
  • Students acquire the knowledge and skills to oversee project execution, ensuring compliance with quality standards, building codes, safety regulations, and environmental policies. This involves closely monitoring work progress, ensuring workplace safety, and efficiently managing the material and human resources involved in the project.
 
  • Construction safety is a fundamental aspect of the curriculum; therefore, students learn to apply safety procedures and regulations to guarantee a secure work environment for all stakeholders. This includes implementing job-site safety measures, identifying and mitigating risks, and fostering a culture of safety within work teams.
 
In summary, the Construction and Civil Engineering program at Rumiñahui University provides students with a comprehensive education that combines technical knowledge, design and planning skills, project management, and safety protocols, preparing them to meet the challenges and demands of the construction sector while contributing to the development of high-quality infrastructure in a sustainable and responsible manner.

Applicants for the Associate Degree in Construction and Civil Engineering must demonstrate:

  • Interest in technical and construction fields,as well as the development of sustainable infrastructure.
  • Basic proficiency in mathematics, physics, and technical drawing,essential for understanding structural and design fundamentals.
  • Ability to work in teams,leadership potential, and a willingness to follow technical instructions.
  • Capacity for observation, analysis,and solving practical problems within the construction environment.
  • Commitment to safety, order, and organization in work environments.
  • Social and environmental responsibility,with a disposition to contribute to sustainable urban development.

Furthermore, motivation to learn digital design and project management tools, alongside an ethical and collaborative professional attitude, is highly valued.

The Construction and Civil Engineering Technologist is qualified to participate in the design, planning, execution,and control of construction projects under the supervision of a Civil Engineer. They are proficient in digital tools (AutoCAD, Revit, MS Project), apply technical and safety regulations,prepare budgets, presupuestos, selecciona materiales adecuados y coordina equipos de trabajo.

Additionally, they are capable of analyzing construction processes,proposing sustainable improvements,applying research methods, and meeting standards of quality, sustainability, and efficiency,contributing to safe projects that are environmentally responsible and compliant with current regulations.
