THE FACULTY OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES

The building of the Faculty of Technical Sciences was built in 1961. The designers are the Belgrade architects Miodrag Petrović, Ranko Trbojević and Pavle Krasojević. There were four departments in the building at the time: the Architectural Engineering, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Electronic Engineering department. Today, it houses the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.

The building belongs to a selected group of high-ranked educational facilities, both in terms of its clearly designed function and its high-quality International Style architecture. The complex is functionally and physically clearly divided into a five-story section with classrooms, a four-story section with offices, and with a connecting staircase segment. The well-developed multi-functional ground level contains an entry section, amphitheaters, laboratories and auxiliary rooms. Each section has its own façade finish in terms of material and color, and its own logical arrangement and dimensions of openings and solid surfaces. A discreet addition, completed in 1999 according to the designs of Dušan Ilić, was in formative terms more successful in the office section than in the classroom section. On this occasion, some parts of the façade were renovated, and the joinery was replaced, but the original appearance of the structure was mainly preserved.
