Civil and environmental engineers focus on buildings and infrastructure and the environment in which they are built and operated, continually finding new ways to ensure safety and sustainability of operations whilst also protecting the natural world. From safe drinking water and transport systems, to dealing with contaminated sites and minimising environmental impact, the work of civil and environmental engineers is varied; it also a huge impact on our quality of life on a daily basis.World-class civil and environmental engineers require a deeper understanding of areas such as public health engineering (including water supply, wastewater treatment, waste disposal, recycling, contaminated land and pollution control), energy use in buildings and construction, and transport engineering and planning.Studying civil engineering at Leeds will open up a whole world of opportunities for your career. You’ll develop and fine-tune theoretical and practical abilities and learn to solve problems using analytical, technical and decision-making skills.Our degree programmes develop civil and environmental engineers who actively contribute to sustainable and economic growth whilst maintaining the highest ethical standards and delivering the infrastructure we all rely on in everyday life. That’s one of the reasons why our courses are accredited by several leading professional bodies and are shaped by our world-leading research.This is a practical course, so you’ll also have access to excellent laboratory facilities, design studio, as well as extensive library facilities and computing equipment, including industry standard software such as Revit (Building Information Modelling), IES (dynamic thermal modelling) and Robot (structural analysis). Our impressive laboratory facilities include specialist facilities for structures, materials, public health engineering, building services and geotechnics – everything you need to get started on your career as a chartered civil and environmental engineer.**Why study at Leeds**- Graduate with an accredited civil engineering degree which meets the highest quality chartered engineer standards as set by the Engineering Council via the JBM, from a university ranked 2nd in the UK for Civil Engineering, Guardian University Guide 2022 and Top 50 in the world for Civil and Structural Engineering, QS Rankings by Subject 2021.- Work on your own construction design projects, putting into practice what you have learned in lectures, laboratory classes and tutorials; build scale physical models and develop graphical presentation and computer modelling skills using industry standard software.- Develop your experience and boost your career prospects with our paid industrial placement opportunities or study abroad programmes.- Experience teaching from a programme team with extensive industry experience, and led by Dr Costas Velis, Lecturer in Resource Efficiency Systems whose research spans many aspects of circular economy and resources recovery from waste, plastics pollution prevention, and recycling systems. - Take advantage of our world leading research here at Leeds, which helps to address societal, technical and environmental challenges with infrastructure around the world.- Make the most of university partnerships which include long-standing collaborations with the Institute for Transport Studies, Robotics at Leeds and the Centre for Global Development and leadership roles in major initiatives including water@leeds, an interdisciplinary centre for water research, the Institute for High Speed Rail and System Integration, the Centre for Infrastructure Materials, and the Neville Centre of Excellence in Cement and Concrete Engineering.- Have the reassurance of being able to transfer between Civil Engineering and any other of th
