If you are creative, enjoy design and aspire to improve the world around you, then civil engineering is for you. This degree will equip you to find solutions to global environmental problems and design large and unique sustainable structures that shape society - for example, buildings, bridges, water supply systems, transport networks, renewable electricity generation and other critical infrastructure assets.

The course balances deep theoretical knowledge with practical application. At Bristol, you will benefit from our world-class laboratory facilities, including one of the most advanced earthquake-shaking tables in Europe.

This degree is a great opportunity to broaden your worldview and experience a different culture. In your third year, you will study at one of our partner universities abroad where the course is delivered in English. In previous years, exchanges have included institutions in Sweden, the Netherlands, Australia, Canada, the US, Hong Kong and Singapore. There is no direct entry into the course but you can apply to transfer from the other courses if you reach a high academic standard in your first two years.

The first two years provide a strong foundation in engineering, including mathematics, structures, soil and fluid mechanics, coding and surveying.

Design is central to the course and is reflected in the projects and real-world challenges you will face. In the first year, you will develop a sustainable solution to an open-ended problem, such as designing and making a model bridge. The second year includes designing with steel, concrete and timber, geotechnical design and water engineering. More optional units are introduced in subsequent years, allowing you to pursue your interests while developing key professional skills such as project management and risk analysis.

Your third year overseas will mirror the third-year curriculum at Bristol, and you will return to Bristol for your fourth and final year. To find out more about studying abroad, visit Centre for Study Abroad.

In your fourth year, you will take part in an exciting group design project, combining all your learning as you tackle realistic design challenges identified through our industry links. Design projects range from transportation to smart cities and from skyscrapers to sustainable housing.

We work closely with industry to ensure we equip you with the skills and experiences needed to become a future leader in civil engineering. Our graduates are highly sought after by top employers, including civil engineering consultancies and construction companies, utility companies, the military, public transport providers, sustainable electricity generators, and environmental managers.

Accreditations

Our Civil Engineering with Study Abroad MEng is accredited by CIHT, IHE, IStructE, ICE and PWI.
