Our Civil Engineering degrees will allow you to develop expertise in the fundamental principles of analysis, design, sustainability and safety, to enhance the quality of life for present and future generations.Visits to construction sites and lectures from experts in industry provide insight into the latest civil engineering practices. Regular projects tackle industrial challenges such as the design, building and testing of structures, the development of a robotic construction scheme, designing civil engineering works on HS2 railway or providing engineered solutions for the urban development of poor communities. You will also enjoy fieldwork, which has previously included geotechnical engineering work.You may choose to spend a year in industry, research or study abroad between Years Two and Three (BEng and MEng), or between Years Three and Four (MEng only). MEng students may apply to take their third year at a partner university abroad, subject to academic requirements and approval of study programme. If you choose to study abroad or take a year in industry, this will be reflected in your degree title. We have a dedicated Placement and Internship Officer who can support you to gain relevant work experience through a summer or year-long placement.By choosing the MEng degree you can explore specialist areas of Civil Engineering through fourth-year core and optional module choices and a group project.
