About the course

Civil engineers are essential to society, designing key elements of the built environment such as bridges, tunnels, transport systems, buildings, flood defences, and water management. This degree offers a strong foundation in civil engineering design and analysis, equipping students with vital skills like problem decomposition, sketching solutions, technical reporting, and application of standards like Eurocodes. It also develops computer modelling abilities through software creation for real-world problems and fosters awareness of design trade-offs, including environmental, economic, and safety factors.Facilities include structures teaching, geomechanics, concrete experiments, fluid mechanics, and bridge testing. The program is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators, comprising leading institutions, and links to world-class research, such as contributions to the NASA space shuttle. Options for a Year in Industry or Abroad enhance employability, with guaranteed conditional offers subject to requirements. Typical modules span conceptual design, mechanics, sustainability, soil mechanics, dynamics, and advanced topics like finite element methods and coastal engineering.
