What is civil engineering?

Civil engineering is behind how our modern towns and cities work. Civil engineers design, construct, maintain, upgrade, rehabilitate, and repair major infrastructures used by humans while protecting the natural environment. The industry plays a key role in designing a framework that can help tackle the climate change emergency. 

This integrated master’s course provides the ideal platform to gain broad-based technical experience. The knowledge you develop will enable you to enter design, construction or operations roles within the civil engineering industry.

As part of this course, you’ll:

  • Equip yourself with the problem-solving skills to work on projects such as designing large structures and infrastructure, including roads, water supply and drainage, bridges, airports, tunnels, and sea and flood defences
  • Study an advanced technical programme that will give you the knowledge and skills to contribute effectively in a variety of industry settings
  • Be introduced to contemporary research and engineering solutions to meet global challenges, such as the climate change emergency
  • Be taught by staff with a broad range of industry experience in subjects including structural engineering, water engineering, geotechnical engineering, project management, and highways engineering
  • Take part in practical work and laboratory study using industry standard facilities and IT design software
  • Secure work placements during the summer, and plan an optional paid placement year in industry, with the help of your course team


MEng is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators This degree is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM), comprising of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE), Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE), the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation (CIHT) and the Permanent Way Institution (PWI) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
