history of the faculty

 
Faculty of Civil Engineering at University of Mostar is the institution of higher education in the field of civil engineering. The Faculty started to work on 1st September 1978 and it was officialy registrated on 11 May 1979 with the Decision of Business Court ref. U-1248/79.
Ever increasing needs of the region for highly educated civil engineering professionals and the requirement to increase the number of institutions of higher education as a prerequisite for a more rapid economic and social development of the region resulted in the opening of the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Mostar.  
After the needs of the region for highly educated civil engineering professionals and the requirement for increasing the number of institutions of higher education as a prerequisite for a more rapid economic and social development had continuously been increasing it was properly to establish the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Mostar.
From its beginning, The Faculty has been making efforts to become a part of integral european system and space of higher education in all possible aspects. The Faculty has matured and its study programmes are completely synchronized with the principles of the Bologna declaration. 
According to the mentioned principles, the studies of civil engineering are, since the 2005/2006 academic year, organized in two cycles: undergraduate studies lasting three years (180 ECTS credits) and graduate studies lasting two years (120 ECTS credits).
The Faculty had been working in the rented premises of the municipality building (ex. dormitory) in Kralja Zvonimira Street #14 (once Ante Zuanića street) until 2008. Together with the establisment of the Faculty in 1978, plans for the construction of a new building of the Faculty within the campus of the University of Mostar were made but due to the lack of financial means that plans were not realized until 2008. The construction of the new building of the Faculty started on 2nd February 2007. The Government of the Republic of Croatia had completely provided funds for the new building within 1st phase of the investment in the Campus of the University of Mostar. The inauguration of the new Faculty building was held on 13th November 2008 within the 30th anniversary of the Faculty celebration. On same day, within this celebration, International Scientific Symposium Modelling of Structures was opened and monograph 30 Years of the Faculty of Civil Engineering University of Mostar was promoted.
The Faculty passed accreditation of the study programme of civil engineering which was done by international team of experts within ESABIH project (European Union Standards for accreditation of study programmes on BiH universities) in year 2012.
