This MSc aims to equip students with the skills of analysis and design necessary for employment as professional civil engineers and give them a solid academic background for becoming chartered engineers
The programme combines traditional lectures with group projects and an individual research project in the student's chosen specialist field
Students develop advanced knowledge of civil engineering and associated engineering and scientific disciplines (structure dynamics, sustainable building design, transport, fluids, geotechnics, water and drainage, environmental and coastal engineering, planning and construction)
They gain awareness of the context in which engineering operates, in terms of design, construction and the environment, alongside transferable skills, which leads to careers in industry and research
The programme consists of four core modules (60 credits), four optional modules (60 credits), and a research project (60 credits)
This programme enables students who have completed a BEng degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or similar) to supplement this with a taught graduate Master's degree,
Students wishing to combine the general MSc in Civil Engineering can now apply to one of six specialist pathways in related disciplines (Seismic Design, Environmental Systems, GIS, Surveying, Integrated Design and Infrastructure Planning)
