In addition to the competences for Graduates from Ain Shams University and all Engineering Programs, the Structural Engineering Program graduate must be able to:

• Select appropriate and sustainable technologies for construction of buildings, infrastructures and water structures; using either numerical techniques or physical measurements and/or testing by applying a full range of civil engineering concepts and techniques of: Structural Analysis and Mechanics, Properties and Strength of Materials, Surveying, Soil Mechanics and Fluid Mechanics.
• Achieve an optimum design of Reinforced Concrete and Steel Structures, Foundations and Earth Retaining Structures; and at least three of the following civil engineering topics: Transportation and Traffic, Roadways and Airports, Railways, Sanitary Works, Irrigation, Water Resources and Harbours; or any other emerging field relevant to the discipline.
• Plan and manage construction processes; address construction defects, instability and quality issues; and maintain safety measures in construction and materials.
• Deal with biddings, contracts and financial issues including project insurance and guarantees; and assess environmental impacts of civil engineering projects.
• Analyze structural systems under different type of loads using advanced computational methods.
• Demonstrate the knowledge of designing, repairing, and strengthening advanced structural systems using conventional (i.e., concrete, masonry, and steel) and modern materials and techniques.
• Design and ensure the safety and stability of the foundation system, the ground beneath it, and construction techniques.
• Have a great vision about the load path within different structural elements, that has a big influence on the innovation in the structural design.
• Demonstrate knowledge in the fields of management project resources, risk, safety, and legal issues in construction.
