The Institute of the Faculty of Civil Engineering has the two departments: Institute for design and testing of materials and structures (ZPIMK) and the Institute for energy efficiency and environmental protection (ZEEZO).

In the pre-war period, the Faculty of Civil Engineering used to have an Institute of civil engineering and structures, founded in 1978. This period was fruitful in terms of implemented scientific and research projects, especially about use of secondary raw materials, such as filter ash from the thermal power plant TE Gacko and silicate waste from the ferrosilicon plant Jajce.
