The Master of Science Degree in Highway Engineering (MHWE) is a taught programme of one year duration. It includes five compulsory courses, a Project, Dissertation and six elective courses from which three courses should be selected and passed The Project is scheduled for the second semester of study. A Dissertation commences after successful completion of the five courses offered during the first semester. The MHWE regulations are fully coordinated with the General Regulations of taught masters degrees.

To be admitted into the programme, candidates must have normally obtained a good first degree in Civil Engineering or Transportation Engineering with an Upper Second Class or better and at least two years acceptable practical experience in highway engineering.

Upon graduation the successful MHWE holders are capable to design highways, intersections and other facilities, to supervise, organize and manage construction, rehabilitation and maintenance projects and/or do research and of application concepts in the vast field of modern highways and transportation facilities in national, regional and urban environments.
