Civil engineers tackle some of the greatest challenges in contemporary society by designing and building structures and infrastructure for an increasingly urbanised global population in an ever-changing environment.
Our Civil Engineering BEng course involves extensive design work linked to real-life engineering problems, allowing you to develop important professional skills such as teamwork, presenting, project management and report writing. These skills, combined with your specific technical expertise and critical thinking, will enable you to pursue a career as a professional civil engineer or choose from a wide range of other career options.
When you graduate, you are likely to be part of a team working on the planning, design, building and maintenance of infrastructure systems such as bridges, roads, railways and a variety of buildings such as skyscrapers, airports, hospitals or sports stadia worldwide. This requires an understanding and appreciation of the various people and processes that contribute to the construction cycle, that you can only acquire by studying in an integrated School such as ours.
All our teaching is delivered by inspirational academics with excellent expertise in their research field. By studying with us, you enter a stimulating, diverse and interactive environment from day one. We also bring in leading speakers from industry to enrich the learning experience with real-life engineering challenges.
