Lyuben Karavelov Higher School of Construction

Lyuben Karavelov Higher School of Construction, Civil engineering institution in Sofia, Bulgaria.

The Lyuben Karavelov Higher School of Construction is a technical institution in Sofia that trains specialists in building and civil works. The school combines classroom learning with hands-on laboratory work in structural design, materials testing, and construction methods.

Founded on 4 November 1938 by Decree No. 22 of Tsar Boris III as the School for Training Labour Officers, it began in the Lagera quarter and moved to its own building in Gorna Banya in 1942. Renamed several times, it became the Higher Military Engineering and Construction School "Lyuben Karavelov" in 1991 and was civilianised on 31 August 2000 as the Lyuben Karavelov Higher School of Construction.

The school's name honours Lyuben Karavelov, a 19th-century Bulgarian writer and revolutionary. Its earlier patron was General Blagoy Ivanov. Students from Tanzania, Mozambique, Cuba, Laos, Yemen, Vietnam, Mongolia and Syria have studied here, and graduates received the rank of lieutenant.

The school has specialized laboratory facilities where students work with real materials and equipment used in the construction industry. Access to some teaching spaces may be restricted to registered groups or scheduled visits.

The school's name changed ten times, from a 1938 school for labour officers to its current title in 2000. It also trained officers for Bulgaria's Construction Troops, a militarised labour force, before becoming a civilian institution.
