Civil and Structural Engineering (with Advanced Practice) MSc 20 months Postgraduate Programme By Teesside University |TopUniversities

Programme overview

Main Subject

Engineering - Civil and Structural

Degree

MSc

Study Level

Master's

Study Mode

On Campus

This course adds an advanced practice module to our one-year master’s and is an opportunity to enhance your qualification by an internship or research experience.

You enhance your technical skills in various core areas of civil engineering, such as advanced structural design, advanced geotechnics, and water and wastewater treatment processes. You also further develop your conceptual understanding of critical aspects of structural engineering, such as advanced structural analysis and design, and become familiar with complex analysis and design techniques, modelling the causes and solutions of problems involving the real behaviour of structures. You acquire an advanced knowledge and understanding of the design of structures under dynamic and earthquake conditions. Advanced project planning and visualisation methods, such as building information modelling, are also integrated into the course. The dissertation is an opportunity to conduct a supervised research project, developing original knowledge in a specific area of civil or structural engineering.

A vocational internship is a great way to gain work experience and give your CV a competitive edge. A research internship provides you with the opportunity to develop your analytical, team-working, research and academic skills by working alongside a research team in an academic setting. We guarantee a research internship, but cannot guarantee a vocational internship. We will, however, provide you with practical support and advice on how to find and secure your own vocational internship position should you prefer this type of internship.
