Why You Should Study This Course

Graduates from our Civil Engineering programmes will be capable of addressing the needs of society and business; able to deploy appropriate engineering methods and technologies; skilled in solving complex engineering challenges; competent to work with the environment in a sustainable manner; effective in mitigating climate change impacts on infrastructure and human society.

This degree is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM), comprising the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Institution of Structural Engineers, the Institute of Highway Engineers, the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation and the Permanent Way Institution on behalf of the Engineering Council as fully meeting the educational base required for an Incorporated Engineer (IEng) and partially meeting educational base required for a Chartered Engineer (CEng).

Are you looking for a rewarding and challenging career? Perhaps civil engineering has always interested you. Maybe you recently learned about it at school or college and now you want to learn more. Either way, we believe that civil engineering can provide you with a career that can excite you. Civil engineers design, construct, and maintenance features of the natural and built environment. A civil engineering career will engage you in the process of solving the problems that confront communities today as well as those that will confront us all in the future.

To help you fulfil that role, the Brunel team have designed a programme that will engage your creative spirit. Our programme is designed to support your development as an effective learner, and also to equip you with the skills needed to function effectively in multidisciplinary engineering team environments.
