Course Summary

This five-year masters level accredited degree offers you the opportunity to work in the one of the top civil engineering departments in the country and undertake a paid year in industry. You will gain a solid grounding in core subjects, including structures, geotechnics, materials, fluids, surveying and construction management, with opportunities to specialise in further key areas such as hydraulic design and risk assessment in later years.

Course Details - Modules

In your first year, you will be introduced to the core disciplines and the context of civil engineering such as structural mechanics and strength; geotechnics and hydraulics within a group project based environment. In year two, your core subjects will be developed in greater depth and a major design-based project will help you see the application of your studies. At the end of year two or three you will undertake a paid year in industry supported by our dedicated industrial placements team and underpinned by frequent visits by your tutor. In your final year, core subjects continue alongside a range of elective modules and you’ll complete a group design project and an individual investigative project on a topic related to your particular interests.
