Structural Engineering MSc

*Structural Engineering is the foundation of our built environment. In the age of climate change and urbanisation, innovation in this field has never been more important.*

*Taught across eight course units, each worth 15 credits, combined with a research dissertation worth 60 credits, you will cover advanced aspects of theory and design, looking at both the static and dynamic behaviour of structures in steel, concrete, and other materials.*

*Specialist, topical elements covered in this programme include studying the behaviours of structural designs against extreme loading, including both fire and earthquakes, brought to you by internationally leading researchers and engineers. You will also explore an introduction to finite element modelling, experimental work, and research methods.*

*Within both the discipline of Civil Engineering and the wider School of Engineering, our experts focus on a broad range of research areas and have a wide spread of professional, real-time experience in industry.*

*You will also learn in our world-class facilities, including the Engineering and Materials Building. This space is the largest dedicated engineering building in the UK and is home to excellent equipment to supplement your theoretical learning with hands-on work.*
