Course content
The MSc Civil Engineering programme has been designed to meet the requirements of the accrediting body: the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM), representing the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Institute of Structural Engineers, the Institute of Highway Engineers, the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation and the Permanent Ways Institution.
As such, the programme reflects the detailed JBM requirements for MSc degrees and the latest version of the Engineering Council learning outcomes (AHEP version 4).
Accreditation will be sought at the earliest opportunity in consultation and coordination with the JBM.
The MSc Civil Engineering with Advanced Project is designed for ambitious civil and structural engineering graduates and those with related degrees and professional experience looking to expand their technical expertise, skills and career opportunities.
The Advanced Project award aims to develop key professional skills that you will need when seeking employment. You will learn how to deliver successful projects and develop strategies for successful employment after graduation. This is an integrated degree programme that brings together the key generic skills of management and research methods with specific modules focusing on civil and structural engineering. This approach will help you to develop your critical thinking skills as a future engineering manager, or technical specialist enabling you effectively to analyse technical and or management issues.
The programme aims to equip you with the theory and practice of relevant subjects, technologies and analytical tools to provide solutions for civil and structural engineering challenges, as well as providing a blend of knowledge and application experience through case studies and project work. You will focus on the links between analysis and design and the supporting skills of management.
