From the world’s tallest buildings and most spectacular bridges, to airports, highways, hospitals, rail networks and flood defences, civil engineers provide the critical infrastructure that makes our world work. This course is designed to provide the educational base you need to become professionally recognised as a chartered engineer. As with the BEng, you will learn the principles of civil engineering and the latest industry developments, but the extra Master’s year will give you a broader, more in-depth understanding of the subject as well as the opportunity of a module that encompasses the whole life design of a project.
Choosing this course will provide you with a clear route to a professional career in civil engineering. You will gain technical knowledge as well as practical and professional skills that will ensure you are a highly employable graduate.
You will learn and be inspired in our brand-new School of Physics, Engineering and Computer Science, opening in 2024. Here, you will enjoy a range of experiential learning zones and have access to modelling, simulation and research labs. Further facilities include dedicated concrete, hydraulics and light structures labs with specialist equipment to enhance your studies.
The extra master's year will give you a more in-depth understanding of civil engineering, as well as the opportunity to work on the whole life design of a specific project.
