Civil Engineering, MEng (Hons), with industry placement

Civil engineering integrates creativity with scientific and technological expertise to drive global change. Students learn to design and manage major projects through team-based studies in structures, geotechnics, materials, wind, fluids, transport, surveying, and construction management. The program includes site visits and access to advanced facilities such as wind tunnels, earthquake simulators, design studios, and CAD software. This five-year accredited BEng degree offers the option to transition to an MEng after the second year, based on performance, providing the preferred path to Chartered Engineer status. Year four involves a paid industry placement.In the first year, students explore core disciplines like structural mechanics, geotechnics, and hydraulics through group projects. Year two deepens these subjects with a major design project, followed by the industry placement at the end of year two or three, supported by dedicated teams and tutor visits. The final year combines core modules, electives, and individual investigative projects aligned with personal interests.
