About this course
MEng (Hons) in Civil Engineering, a civil engineering degree focused on technical principles for the built environment. Core topics include Research Methods and Engineering Design. Students complete a professional placement in the third year and undertake a dissertation in the final year. The first year covers foundational subjects through Architectural engineering 1, Design skills, Engineering mathematics and computation 1, Geology, hydrology and surveying, History, theory and engineering practice, and Structural mechanics and materials. The second year progresses with Architectural engineering 2, Civil engineering infrastructure 1A: hydraulics, Civil engineering infrastructure 1B: transportation, Construction processes and management, Engineering mathematics and computation 2, Soil mechanics and foundation design, and Structural design and construction. The third year consists of a Professional placement. The fourth year features Civil engineering elective topics, Civil engineering infrastructure 2, Infrastructure engineering design project, Joint design project, and Structural and geotechnical design and analysis. The fifth year concludes the studies with Advanced infrastructure engineering, Civil engineering elective topics 2, Group design project: civil engineering, and MEng civil engineering dissertation.
