Course summary

This course will give you a good broad knowledge of civil engineering, and gain first-hand industry experience. You will benefit from experiencing the culture in industry, making contacts, and operating as a graduate engineer.If you're not sure which area of civil engineering you want to go into, this broad-based course is a good choice. In years one and two, you'll concentrate on the core disciplines of structural engineering, water infrastructure engineering, fluid mechanics, and geotechnical mechanics, from both an analysis and design perspective.The second half of the courses focuses more on specialised and advanced structural engineering areas such as bridge engineering, multi-storey building design, sustainability, geotechnics and your independent research project.During your third year, you'll spend a full semester doing the Integrated Design Project. The project encourages you to unleash your creativity on a grand scale by devising plans for an entire urban regeneration project based on a real site in Sheffield. You'll investigate new design methods and construction materials while developing detailed designs such as elegant bridges, sustainable and environmentally sensitive multi-storey buildings, or state-of-the-art sports venues. It'll give you invaluable project experience and a feel for the kind of issues you may encounter in your career. Industry placement
