Course structure

Explore the fundamentals of Civil Engineering in our dynamic BEng programme, which will provide you with the foundations to solve global environmental and social challenges through theoretical study and practical projects.

In Semester 1, you'll build foundational engineering skills, focusing on mathematical applications, mechanical principles, and digital skills.

Semester 2 progresses to explore fluid mechanics, electrical principles, and material properties. Alongside learning theoretical principles, you'll practically apply the skills you have developed in an interdisciplinary design project tackling real-world problems, across Semester 1 & 2.

Combining state-of-the-art technology with fundamental engineering, this programme will develop your knowledge and skills to tackle global challenges. With a Design Centre and the Makerspace, you’ll be able to apply your new skills in practical facilities.

Enjoy working alongside students from other engineering disciplines, so you graduate with interdisciplinary experience. From construction and infrastructure to energy and climate resilience, you’ll be ready for roles in a broad range of fields.
