| Abstract: A model of engineering education in the field of construction is introduced in this paper. It is designed by following the criteria of the Bologna Declaration, the European and domestic labor market, as well as the specifics in the existing level of development of the engineering faculties in Macedonia (infrastructure, human resources, labs, equipment, etc.). This model can serve as a basis for reform of the existing models of engineering education, with a sole purpose to increase efficiency and to effectively increase the level of quality in the field of engineering education. |
