This accredited civil engineering degree gives you a grounding in the subject plus an extra year to develop your study skills. It has lower entry requirements than our standard BEng.
This BEng Civil Engineering course explores pioneering approaches in civil engineering and the ways these can solve real-world problems. The course begins with a foundation year to get you ready for degree-level learning. You'll then study the same modules offered on our three-year course.
Our modules cover construction management, engineering geology, hydraulics and soil mechanics. You will also be able to specialise in water engineering, bridge design and concrete structures during the course. Career options for our civil engineering graduates include roles with consulting engineering companies, contracting organisations, and national and local government.
This degree is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM) comprising the Institution of Civil Engineers, Institution of Structural Engineers, Institute of Highway Engineers, the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation and the Permanent Way Institution on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng) and partially meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng). Candidates must hold a masters or doctorate accredited as further learning for CEng to hold accredited qualifications for CEng registration. See JBM's website for further information and details of Further Learning programmes for CEng.
