Offshore systems comprise design, analysis, construction, recycling and removal of fixed and floating offshore and subsea installations in connection with petroleum exploration and production. The specialization requires a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or civil engineering with emphasis on structural engineering. The master program is based on fundamental mathematical subjects and focuses on the physics of solids, marine technology and operations and dynamic structural analysis. These core subjects lay the groundwork for specialization within structural engineering and marine and subsea technology.

PROGRAM CONTENT, STRUCTURE AND PROGRESSION

Consisting of a total of 120 ECTS, the master program is made up of 20 ECTS basic methods courses (G) which consolidate and continue the mathematical and scientific foundation from the bachelor program. 15 ECTS are common (core) subjects (F) which give the students a broad and common platform in offshore technology and they complement and expand subjects from the bachelor program as well. The remaining 85 ECTS consist of 30 ECTS of compulsory basic (core) courses (K), 25 ECTS of elective concentration courses (S) and a final master thesis of 30 ECTS (M). The electives must be approved by the department, but the students will have considerable freedom in choosing their own combinations depending on interest and level of knowledge. The master thesis may be taken either at the faculty or in cooperation with industry. The department has good contacts with offshore companies in the region. The department has good contacts with offshore companies in the region. In order to be assigned a topic for a master paper, satisfactory progression must be demonstrated as cited in Regulations for Master's theses.

The program provides opportunities for concentration / specialization within the following areas:STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING focuses on analysis of offshore structures, based on environmental and other loads, load bearing systems, and strength of materials. Analysis of structural behaviour within theory of elasticity and plasticity, including the use of finite element method, is emphasized. Fatigue, fracture and general structural integrity are important subjects.

MARINE AND SUBSEA TECHNOLOGY is devoted to systems and operations in subsea field developments. The program combines basic mechanical engineering subjects with marine technology and knowledge of systems and operations related to installation, operation and maintenance. Design of Subsea Production Systems, Modern Well Design are examples of central electives.

UiS wishes to offer all its programs as planned, but courses still have to be subject to availability of resources and a minimum student enrollment. Also the content and scope of the courses will necessarily have to change over time because of professional development, use of new technology and general social change.

The course work consists of lectures, project assignments, obligatory and voluntary exercises and laboratory work. The course descriptions provide further information on

Student exchange

Modules in internationalization within the four semester master program can most conveniently be offered in connection with the more general subjects in the second semester (spring), but this depends on the agreements that have been made.
