If you're not sure which area of civil engineering you want to go into, this broad-based course is a good choice.
You'll have the chance to arrange a year working in an engineering company between years three and four. This will put your academic studies into context, improve your skills and enhance your employment prospects.
The first and second years introduce the core disciplines of structures, water, geotechnics and environmental issues. In the first year, you'll take the Global Engineering Challenge. This involves working with other engineering students on a one-week project to tackle a real-world problem. The challenge is designed to develop your skills and enhance your career prospects.
In the third and fourth years, you will explore environmental and sustainability issues in more depth. You will also work on an integrated design project, investigating new methods and materials for the design of an entire eco-town or urban regeneration site. The project is demanding. It takes initiative, motivation and careful planning.
