Course Summary

Our courses provide you with the fundamentals of engineering, alongside design modules throughout your degree, which enable you to apply your knowledge and develop the skills you need to become a successful engineer. This four-year integrated masters will provide you with the opportunity to study a more extensive range of advanced civil engineering subjects than the BEng course. The first two years of our Civil Engineering degrees are identical, providing the same comprehensive foundation. You will extend your knowledge and skills in your third and fourth years, taking part in individual and group projects. The Industrial Placement Year is an additional year-long module that allows you to apply for a placement with an engineering-based organisation. During your year-long placement, you will fulfil the role of a trainee engineer on a full-time basis. We offer our students a dynamic learning environment; your course will include a combination of lectures, laboratory classes, tutorials, private study, and individual and group projects.

Course Details - Modules

Year 1: Design and Computing for Civil Engineers; Civil Engineering Fundamentals; Mathematics; ThermoFluids; Mechanics, Structures and Materials. Year 2: Liveable Cities; Structural Analysis; Mathematics; Structural Design and Materials; City Infrastructure Design Project; Soil Mechanics; Hydraulics; Numerical Methods.

The additional information gained through contextual data allows us to recognise a student’s potential to succeed in the context of their background and experience. Students who are highlighted in this way will be made an offer which is lower than the typical offer for that programme, as follows: AAA including mathematics and an additional required subject or A*AB including A*A in mathematics and an additional required subject (in any order) Required subjects include mathematics and either physics, biology, chemistry, geography, geology or further mathematics. Pass in the associated science Practical is required where applicable. Offers typically exclude General Studies and Critical Thinking.

We normally consider applicants who offer at least 1 Advanced Higher. Applicants presenting with only Highers will be considered on a case by case basis. Where Highers are taken over two years it might be expected that higher grades are achieved, particularly in any specific subjects required. For example, S5 – S6 (2 years): AABBB (A in specific subject) or S6 (1 year): ABBBB (A in specific subject). Unless a more advanced level (Higher or Advanced Higher) is specified in the stated entry requirements, all applicants will be required to have achieved a pass in Mathematics and English at Standard Grade, Grade 3 or National 5, Grade C, the equivalent of GCSE Grade C/ Grade 4" We are committed to ensuring that all learners with the potential to succeed, regardless of their background, are encouraged to apply to study with us. The additional information gained through contextual data allows us to recognise a learner's potential to succeed in the context of their background and experience.
