Julian Totev

Prof. Julian Totev serves as a Professor in the Department of Roads and Transport Facilities within the Faculty of Transport Engineering at the University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy (UACEG) in Sofia, Bulgaria. His academic responsibilities include teaching specialized courses in transport infrastructure and supervising student projects.

Education:

• 1980: English Language School, Sofia
• 1985: VIAS (Higher Institute of Architecture and Civil Engineering), specialty 'Transport Construction' with profile 'Railway Construction'

Professor Totev's research focuses on critical transport infrastructure engineering domains, particularly tunnel systems, cable transport networks, and railway/rail infrastructure. His work integrates practical design challenges in underground construction, metropolitan transit systems, and road engineering. He emphasizes hands-on application through project-based learning where students develop solutions for real-world scenarios like tunnel construction, cable car systems, and explosive works in transport facilities.

Advising Approach: Professor Totev enforces strict academic standards requiring students to demonstrate original work through regular project iterations, conceptual understanding of engineering principles, and adherence to the Faculty of Engineering's 'Minimum standard requirements for certification'. Reception hours are held in Cabinet B 727 with prior email required for students from previous academic years.
