Civil and Environmental Engineering is a hugely relevant degree for today. The environment is a major consideration for local, national and international companies and governments, but never more is this true than when it comes to engineering projects of all sizes. Greater consideration has to be given to a range of environmental factors and this degree will go some way to making students aware of them. This Honours degree programme follows a similar structure to the straight MEng Civil Engineering degree. The major difference is the compulsory requirement to study the Environmental Engineering course in year 4. This particular course deals with various aspects related to: - surface water: sources of water pollution and their impact on aqueous environment and public health, water quality and supply, wastewater treatment;- soil and groundwater: groundwater flow, groundwater contamination and pollution, subsurface contaminants transport mechanisms, sustainable land-groundwater management;- solid waste: sources of solid waste, characterisation and treatment of solid waste, solid waste management;- air pollution and control: air pollutants and sources, air pollution meteorology, pollutant dispersion in the air, air pollution control.Students will develop a greater understanding of the environmental challenges and considerations required as part of major civil engineering projects, how to manage these challenges and implement effective solutions.The first two years cover general Engineering, with elements of Chemical, Mechanical, Petroleum and Electrical/Electronics, as well as Civil. In the later years you specialise, following your chosen discipline in greater depth. You do not need to finalise your choice of specialisation until you begin third year.It is possible to move between MEng and BEng and this can be accomplished at any point until the second half session of fourth year. Successful BEng candidates will be offered the chance to change to the MEng and there is no quota, meaning that if grade requirements are met that transfer is guaranteed.

AB required in Mathematics, plus at least one from Physics, Design & Technology, Engineering or Chemistry. If applicant presents with B in Physics, Design & Technology or Engineering, Mathematics must be A grade. GCSE English at C. Applicants who are predicted to achieve the Standard entry requirements are encouraged to apply and may be made a conditional offer of admission.
Applicants who achieve AABB or better (to include Mathematics and Physics or Engineering Science) over S4 and S5 are likely to be made an offer of admission. This may be unconditional or conditional, depending upon academic profile. Good performance in additional Highers / Advanced Highers may be required.Note: we do not double count a Higher and Advanced Higher in the same subject, but we do consider that a B at Adv Higher is equivalent to an A grade at Higher.
34 Points including Mathematics and Physics at HL (6 or above) and English at Standard Level.
5 subjects at Higher, with 4 at H2 and 1 at H3H2 or above in mathematics and H3 or above in Physics required.
DDD with Mathematics and Physics required. GCSE at C or above in English or English Language, Mathematics and in either Chemistry or Physics or Dual Award Science. Note: BTEC in Applied Sciences is not normally sufficient on its own for entry into any of our Engineering programmes.
