Structural engineers hold the privilege of being responsible for changing the skylines around the world and be custodians for the built environment around us.

From skyscrapers and megastructures to bridges and tunnels, major projects need to be fit for purpose, withstand natural disasters and make the best use of resources. Develop your Structural Engineering knowledge and technique to help deliver them with our accredited MSc Structural Engineering postgraduate degree.

Available with full-time and part-time study pathways, this course is aligned with the principles of the IStructE Chartered Membership examination. With a combination of engineers with real world experience and active cutting-edge research engineers, our course will provide you with advanced knowledge of structures, ready to meet the challenges of modern Structural Engineering.

Following a suite of carefully-designed modules that blend theory with contemporary methodology and application from concept to detailed design, you will be exposed to assessments that mirror those of the IStructE Chartership examination. You will examine general buildings, bridges, tall buildings and consider Seismic design and assessments with an emphasis on computer modelling and validation.

You will:

• Explore specific issues related to tall buildings and bridge engineering as you examine how technology is driving change in building design and construction practice
• Continue to develop your Structural design and analysis skills acquired during your undergraduate studies, so you're ready to meet the challenges of contemporary Structural Engineering
• Learn from IStructE award-winning academics chartered engineers with current industry experience as you follow a professionally-accredited pathway towards chartered status
