MA/MS in Coastal Engineering

The Master's programme in Coastal Engineering at Thuyloi University addresses the planning and construction of works in marine and coastal environments. The curriculum begins with general knowledge modules before moving to foundation and specialised subjects organised into compulsory and elective blocks. Its core combines reliability-based design, probabilistic theory and numerical simulation of hydrodynamic processes. Compulsory courses cover hydrodynamic models for marine areas, estuary and coastal hydrodynamics and applied numerical methods. Students also study the design of marine structures and the management of coastal zones. Elective modules allow learners to concentrate on particular coastal processes or structure types. The programme follows a staged sequence in which theoretical modules precede applied design work. Research methodology is included in the general block, so learners develop the skills needed to study coastal problems independently.
