About this course

Structural engineers create the ‘bones and muscles’ of human-made structures.

Running since 1966, our course allows you to choose from a rich and varied selection of specialist structural engineering subjects.

You’ll be taught by forward-thinking academics who are at the top of their field, as well as practising engineers from consultancies and local authorities. You will also benefit from the first-class facilities that Surrey has to offer.

Our course is offered as standard full-time study. There are also part-time and distance learning options that you may also wish to consider.

A minimum of 60 per cent in a UK honours degree in civil engineering accredited to CEng, with a minimum of 60 per cent in Structures and Codified Design subjects. Alternatively, a minimum of 70 per cent in a UK honours degree in civil engineering accredited to IEng plus approval from the relevant institution. We'll also accept a recognised equivalent international qualification. At least five years of relevant industrial experience (preferably codified design) or a professional qualification (for example, CEng) will also be considered if you don’t meet these requirements.
