About this course

BEng (Hons) in Civil Engineering, a civil engineering degree focused on technical principles for the built environment. Core topics include Engineering Design. The programme features a compulsory professional placement year and allows students to transfer between related courses up to the end of the second year. The first year covers core foundations through Architectural engineering 1, Design skills, Engineering mathematics and computation 1, and Geology, hydrology and surveying. The second year progresses with Architectural engineering 2, Civil engineering infrastructure 1A: hydraulics, Construction processes and management, and Soil mechanics and foundation design. The third year consists of the Professional placement. The final year concludes with advanced studies including the BEng civil engineering individual project, Joint design project, and Civil engineering infrastructure 2.
