CIVIL ENGINEERING BENG

Why choose this program ?

If you're not sure which area of civil engineering you want to go into, this broad-based course is a good choice. The first and second years introduce the core disciplines of structures, water, geotechnics and environmental issues. In the third year, you'll work as part of a team working on a realistic engineering design project.
Why study this course?

Tailor your degree
By studying at BEng level, you have the option to graduate, continue your education with an MSc, or (subject to performance) change to an MEng programme after year two.

Project-based learning
Our series of design projects allow you to integrate technical knowledge with more practical design considerations. You can develop capability in tackling realistic projects and address the complex challenges in engineering a low carbon future.

Learning from experts
You will be taught by specialist researchers and a team of teaching specialists with a wealth of industry experience who support design-based learning.

Specialist teaching facilities
'Learning by doing' is the reason The Diamond was built. Dedicated to engineering, this is where you'll apply the theory you learn in lectures – consolidating your understanding alongside students from other disciplines, and beyond the bounds of the curriculum.

Professional skills development
Supported by a team of staff with industry experience, our programmes empower and support you to take responsibility for your own development and develop skills and attributes that prepare you for a future as a professional civil or structural engineer.
Our graduates work all over the world, from the UK to Australia and the USA. Recent graduates have gone on to work for AECOM, Arup, Atkins, Buro Happold, Eastwood & Partners, and Kier.

Youâ¿¿ll be able to apply your knowledge and skills to fields as diverse as the built environment, sustainability and improving the environment.

In addition, architectural engineering graduates might go into a broad range of engineering areas ranging from building services to mechanical, electrical or acoustic engineering.

Or as a structural engineer, youâ¿¿ll be helping to shape the world around us. Structural engineers design and construct multi-storey buildings, bridges, sports stadiums, tunnels, airports and schools.
