Description

  • Type

    Bachelor's degree

  • Location

    Edinburgh (Scotland)

Civil Engineering is the application of scientific knowledge to produce all the large scale infrastructure of our world. Its main activities are in the construction, transport, water supply and environmental control sectors, but oil exploration, energy and disaster prevention are all also key activities. Civil engineering is essential to human health and welfare, and provides many of the essential facilities we rely on to live a civilised life.

Course programme

Course Content Year 1

Your time will usually be divided between engineering, mathematics and option courses. You study several branches of engineering, followed by the first in-depth study of your preferred subject.

For most of our programmes you can choose an option from the sciences or the arts. Chemical engineering students must take chemistry in Year 1.

Year 2

You will study your chosen branch of engineering, supported by classes in mathematics. You will begin to apply your scientific and mathematical skills to real problem solving.

Year 3

You will now be able to focus almost entirely on your chosen field of engineering. At the end of Year 3, you will have the option of completing one more year for a BEng (Hons) or studying for a further two years for an MEng (Hons).

Year 4

You will concentrate on specialist study and innovative coursework that will prepare you for your professional career. Increasingly you will spend time on individual or group design projects. These projects include working with students from other disciplines in our unique interdisciplinary design projects, initiated with support from the Royal Academy of Engineering.

MEng students will produce a substantial project that may involve working overseas or in industry.

Courses include:

  • Theory of Structures
  • Fluid Mechanics (Civil)
  • Geotechnical Engineering
  • Computer Methods in Structural Engineering
  • Conceptual Design for Civil Engineers
  • Detailed Design of Structures
  • Engineering Sustainability
  • Infrastructure and Transport
  • Civil Engineering Construction
  • Water and Wastewater Systems
  • Engineering Project Management
