A discipline focused on improving the way we live and with sustainability at its core, you'll study structures, water, geotechnics and environmental issues. Courses on offer in the Department of Civil and Structural Engineering include Civil and Structural, Architectural and Urban Engineering.If you don't have the usual scientific or mathematical background for an engineering degree, a foundation year is for you.After successfully completing the foundation year, which has modules in mathematics, physics and chemistry, you'll progress onto the first year of your chosen degree in the Department of Civil and Structural Engineering.Our multidisciplinary and innovative courses span the disciplines of engineering and architecture.The Integrated Design Project is a feature of all our undergraduate courses. The project encourages you to unleash your creativity on a grand scale by devising plans for an entire urban regeneration project based on a real site in Sheffield.You'll investigate new design methods and construction materials while developing detailed designs such as elegant bridges, sustainable and environmentally sensitive multi-storey buildings, or state-of-the-art sports venues. It'll give you invaluable project experience and a feel for the kind of issues you may encounter in your career.Our graduates work all over the world, from the UK to Australia and the USA. Recent graduates have gone on to work for AECOM, Arup, Atkins, Buro Happold, Eastwood & Partners, and Kier.You'll be able to apply your knowledge and skills to fields as diverse as the built environment, sustainability and improving the environment.In addition, architectural engineering graduates might go into a broad range of engineering areas ranging from building services to mechanical, electrical or acoustic engineering.Or as a structural engineer, you'll be helping to shape the world around us. Structural engineers design and construct multi-storey buildings, bridges, sports stadiums, tunnels, airports and schools.
