Civil engineers are vital to the design of our built environment. Their performance is fundamental to modern society, from bridges, tunnels, and transport systems to buildings, flood defences, and water management. This degree gives you a firm grounding in the design and analysis of Civil Engineering structures. You will develop complex problem-solving skills, gain the ability to sketch and model engineering solutions and become comfortable preparing technical reports. As you progress, your developing analytical abilities will combine with hands-on experience with state-of-the-art equipment, establishing skills that are vital to securing employment in the civil engineering industry.
Variable offers depend on subjects studied, and all applications are considered individually, with GCSE grades, AS Level subjects and grades, work experience, references and personal statements taken into account.
