Civil Engineering Beng (Hon)

Civil engineers design, build and operate the physical infrastructure that we often take for granted; from bridges and buildings to water treatment and waste management systems.<br/><br/>Civil engineering involves:<br/><br/><br/>* creatively applying your physics and mathematics knowledge to deliver unique solutions to complex problems <br/><br/><br/>* selecting and using the appropriate engineering and computational tools to ensure safe and sustainable solutions <br/><br/><br/>* using your advanced knowledge of Civil Engineering materials to select the correct solution for the required application<br/><br/><br/>This programme will train you to be a civil engineer for the future, giving you the knowledge and skills you need to shape and sustain our ever-changing world.<br/><br/>You will have the opportunity to specialise in many technical streams including:<br/><br/><br/>* structural engineering <br/><br/><br/>* environmental engineering <br/><br/><br/>* construction management <br/><br/><br/>* geotechnical engineering <br/><br/><br/>* fire safety engineering<br/><br/><br/>We put a strong emphasis on engineering design, both individually and in groups, throughout this degree programme.<br/><br/>**Why Edinburgh?**<br/><br/>You will be taught by leaders in their Engineering fields whose knowledge is actively sought out by industry and government internationally. <br/><br/>Our unique programmes give you a broad and detailed understanding of Civil and Environmental Engineering, setting you up to work in any field you choose after graduation. <br/><br/>You will benefit from field trips, design-led and team-oriented teaching approaches, and strong engagement with industry which informs our teaching.<br/><br/>Our university boasts world-leading facilities, creating the perfect atmosphere in which to learn.<br/><br/>Our thriving student-led civil engineering society (CivSoc) connects students with social, industrial and academic networks and activities, while our student-led Engineering societies lead the country in: <br/><br/><br/>* hyperloop technology <br/><br/><br/>* rocketry and satellite design <br/><br/><br/>* electric vehicle innovation <br/><br/><br/>* and much more <br/><br/><br/>You will be supported to gain recognition for undertaking an Industrial Internship via the Edinburgh Award.<br/><br/>**Ties to industry**<br/><br/>We have strong industrial engagement through our Industrial Advisory Board and industrial input to our teaching, including our design projects.<br/><br/>You will also have opportunities to interact with recent graduates who are now working in industry.
