Civil Engineering BSc (Hons)

This Civil Engineering degree course is built around five main areas: materials, structures, geotechnics, surveying and construction management. All of these areas are identified as core subjects required in the civil engineering curriculum, according to the Joint Board of Moderators for accredited degree programmes, if you are planning to set out on a path towards becoming a chartered engineer.<br/><br/>Staff have a wide array of construction industry links developed as practitioners, and as members of professional bodies, as well as through industry collaborations and research projects in different fields of civil engineering.<br/><br/>Close links are developed with the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), Construction Wales Innovation Centre (CWIC) and Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB). This provides a wide range of knowledge and experience to support your course, and good employability prospects as civil engineers with the scope to diversify into related fields such as building and site surveyors.<br/><br/>Subjects such as transport infrastructure engineering or environmental engineering are considered in specific modules. The programme is delivered in combination with project-based learning using real case studies and scenarios, site visits, practical exercises in surveying and laboratory testing.
