Civil Engineering BSc (Hons)

Civil engineers find creative ways to solve real-world problems by developing the physical infrastructure needed for society to exist – from bridges to houses, and from roads to hospitals and train stations. This course provides a broad civil engineering education and will give you the design, analysis and construction skills needed for the industry.<br/><br/>Youll be equipped with the abilities to develop sustainable and cost-effective design ideas. Through industry-facing projects, site visits and the opportunity to undertake a work placement year, this course will give you the skills needed to begin a successful career in Civil Engineering. Youll learn about structures, materials, geotechnics, mathematics and develop an applied understanding of practical engineering techniques to find innovative solutions to real-world built environment challenges.<br/><br/>**Key features**<br/><br/><br/>- **Industry-Standard Facilities** | Experience hands-on learning in our specialist facilities and workshops, including dedicated concrete, materials, hydraulics, geotechnical labs and structural testing equipment.<br/><br/><br/>- **Professional Status** | Take the first step in gaining Incorporated Engineer status – this course is accredited to fully satisfy the educational base for an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).<br/><br/><br/>- **Placement Year** | Gain vital skills and experience in the workplace by undertaking a one-year placement on our sandwich route.
