Civil Engineering

Explore Civil Engineering through a balance of subject knowledge, practical work and independent enquiry. The programme introduces key ideas in engineering mechanics and structural analysis, then develops specialist understanding through applied projects and research.

To develop a learning community in civil engineering that values intellectual curiosity, responsible practice and useful contributions to society.

To provide a supportive education in civil engineering, connecting core concepts with practical experience. Teaching, collaboration and research help students develop subject knowledge, professional communication and independent judgement.

Structural engineering, construction, transport, water infrastructure and project management.

• Explain and apply the core principles of civil engineering.
• Analyse evidence and solve subject-related problems.
• Communicate ideas clearly in writing and presentations.
• Work effectively with others and use relevant digital tools.
• Conduct a supervised project with ethical and professional responsibility.
