This MSc course offers civil engineering graduates and professionals the opportunity to widen their expertise across the key sub-disciplines within civil engineering. It is designed to provide both holistic knowledge and practical experience in the discipline.

From the perspective of industry and government, graduates possessing a broader understanding of Civil Engineering problems are better equipped to contribute to global challenges, such as meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals and tackling the climate emergency. The programme consists of nine compulsory modules spanning structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, water and hydraulic engineering, as well as project and infrastructure management.

Throughout the course, students will have full access to our state-of-the-art technical laboratory facilities. Our purpose-built computer labs are equipped with the latest industry-standard engineering software packages. These facilities are also at the disposal of students for their dissertation projects.

In addition to the course’s broad-based approach across various sub-disciplines, it also teaches advanced design skills and the versatility that engineers require to tackle the complex current challenges in the field of civil engineering.

An MSc Civil Engineering degree will equip you with advanced knowledge and skills to work on a vast range of modern projects in the construction and civil engineering sector. From the perspective of the needs of industry and government, graduates of this MSc, who will have a broader understanding of Civil Engineering problems, would be able to contribute to global challenges that require more holistic knowledge such as fulfilling UN Sustainable Development Goals and addressing climate emergency.
