Course detail

Professional Practical Training

FAST-NWA018Acad. year: 2024/2025

The professional work placement will involve active work by the student on the construction of a specific building or other structure, which will lead to the development of his/her specialised theoretical and practical knowledge. Students will carry out work directly on the building site during the construction process, in most cases in the position of an assistant site manager, and students will also work in construction planning departments. It is the duty of each student to keep a “Work Placement Record”. They are guided by a supervisor appointed from among the company’s employees who will give his/her opinion on the quality of work performed in a final evaluation.
The professional work placement is concluded at a final seminar where students acquaint their colleagues with the activities they performed during their practical training, including the presentation of produced materials and photos of the construction work they were involved in.
