Civil engineers are essential in fostering a sustainable, inclusive, and safe environment, addressing challenges like the climate emergency through the design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure such as buildings, bridges, transport systems, energy facilities, coastal defences, and water management. They also safeguard the natural environment. If you aspire to an impactful career shaping future generations, this degree offers a balanced curriculum blending engineering science principles with real-world applications, emphasizing industry collaboration to ensure graduates achieve top employability rates in the UK.The programme features state-of-the-art laboratories and software, starting with foundational topics in Year 1, including mechanics and surveying. Years 2 and 3 introduce advanced subjects like structural analysis, coastal engineering, and project management, culminating in group and individual projects. In Year 4, students tackle sophisticated engineering and professional practice, working on real-life projects with industry partners. All programmes are accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators, leading to careers with leading firms in design, contracting, and government.
