Role of Fieldwork in Engineering Education in the Field of Construction Management and Transportation Engineering

The paper describes approaches to conducting fieldwork education in construction management and transportation engineering at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Osijek and at the Polytechnic of Zagreb. Fieldwork is an important part of civil engineering study programs in the field of construction management and transportation engineering, both in university studies and in professional studies. The main purpose of fieldwork is to complement the students’ theoretical knowledge and to provide a complete insight into the issues of construction management and technology by strengthening the teaching process in which one creates a clear picture of the students’ future work and provides them with knowledge and skills through direct contact with the profession. This paper presents and describes the process of conducting fieldwork in several course subjects during the academic year 2014/2015. The paper also points out the need for evaluation of educational achievements in fieldwork through a series of elements and emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach aimed at ensuring maximum performance of fieldwork for students as well as successful results in teaching.
