Summary of the subject: The practice on the topic of the master's qualification work involves deepening and expanding the theoretical knowledge and practical skills acquired during the first (bachelor's) and second (master's) levels of study, working in real design production, acquiring practical skills and initial experience as an architect in a design organization, mastering modern methods and techniques in the development of design and estimate documentation using information technology. The student has to collect theoretical and practical information on the topic of the master's research, summarize the information and formulate conclusions on its application in further work. During the internship, students learn modern forms and methods of work in design organizations and architectural departments of public administration, acquire practical skills and experience in concluding agreements and negotiating with the customer, developing architectural and construction documentation; collect practical material for a qualifying master's thesis.
Опис: Holding an organizational meeting. Familiarization with general functional responsibilities, safety rules at the company and at a particular workplace. Briefing on the internship procedure and on safety and accident prevention. Familiarization with the work schedule, form of labor organization and internal regulations, structural units of the company, and staffing table. Study of employee rights and responsibilities; study of job descriptions. Coordination of goals and objectives of the internship. Work in the company's departments. Students work at an enterprise as an architectural technician, collect materials on the topic of master's research, and perform practical tasks. Summarizing the results of the practice.
