Looking after our water resources has never been more important or more challenging. The world needs engineering graduates who can tackle the problems of flooding, pollution and infrastructure design. Our large multidisciplinary water research group drives our research-led teaching and module content. Youll cover essential engineering principles like fluid mechanics, chemistry, hydrology, applied hydrogeology, hydraulic engineering and computational methods, and have the opportunity to attend lectures with leading industry experts and use commercial software and modelling tools.We collaborate with industry and other prestigious universities all over the world on challenging problems in water supply and environmental protection. The course will prepare you for work in areas such as the water industry, sustainable urban development, flood and environmental management.
A minimum 2:1 honours degree (BEng, MEng, BSc) in civil or structural engineering or another appropriate engineering or science subject. You will need a strong background and high previous performance (equivalent to 2:1) in at least one maths module (eg mathematics, statistics, linear algebra, calculus) and at least one water engineering-related module. We'll consider your application if you have appropriate professional qualifications and work experience, but you'll need a strong background in the areas covered on the course.
