The MSc Civil Engineering offers two options:

a general option if youre looking to convert to civil engineering (or for those wishing to diversify/complement their existing skills)
if you have a background in civil engineering you can choose our 'sustainable pathways' route.
What youll study
We offer a 鈥榞eneralist MSc in Civil Engineering by selecting optional classes of your choice from the general Civil Engineering curriculum.

We also offer an MSc in Civil Engineering with two 鈥榮ustainability pathways:

Sustainable Structural & Geotechnical Design
Sustainable Water & Environmental Management
The distinctive feature of the pathways is that they enable access to the industry-led design group project and application to MSc dissertations co-supervised by industry.
Generalist MSc versus the MSc with sustainability pathways
You'll take the compulsory module 鈥楥ivil Engineering Design Projects in both the generalist MSc and MSc with sustainability pathways. This module allows you to work on real projects. Students currently undertake a renewable energy project.

If you're following one of the two sustainability pathways you can select an industry-led project. Youll develop comprehensive and innovative designs that involve structural engineering, geotechnical engineering and water engineering, management, environmental and financial planning.

In both generalist MSc and MSc with sustainability pathways, you'll also take the compulsory module 'Qualitative & Quantitative Research Methods', which supports the dissertation project.

In the generalist MSc, you can select optional modules of your choice for a general Civil Engineering curriculum. We have a wide range of optional modules, and you will take 60 credits from List A plus 30 credits from List A or B (see Course Content).

You can also select one of the two pathways, 'Sustainable Structural and Geotechnical Design' or 鈥楽ustainable Water and Environmental Management (see Course Content). The pathway enables access to the industry-led design project and application to MSc dissertation co-supervised by industry.

Following successful completion of the taught component, youll undertake a dissertation.

Industry engagement
As part of the class 'Independent Study in Collaboration with Industry', you can apply to work with industry projects. If you select modules within one of the two pathways, you can apply to an MSc dissertation co-supervised by industry.
Accreditation
This degree is accredited by the

Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE)
Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE)
Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation (CIHT)
Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE)
Careers:
High-calibre civil engineers are in demand throughout the world. As a graduate, you'll have many different career options including:

engineering consultancies, where the work normally involves planning and designing projects
contractors, where youll be managing and overseeing works on-site
working for utilities or local authorities
working for large companies such as those within oil & gas production, mining, power generation, renewable energy & sustainable infrastructure.
