Content

Year 1: You will take a wide-ranging curriculum which includes courses in architecture, civil engineering, mathematics, dynamics, electronics, materials, statics, thermodynamics and engineering skills. These courses are supported by individual and group project work and laboratory work. This interdisciplinary approach, favoured by industry, also makes it easy to switch to most other engineering disciplines at the end of year 1 should you wish to do so.

Years 2 and 3: You will take a range of courses within civil & structural engineering and architecture. We place considerable emphasis on practical work, in the form of laboratory classes, physical & computational modelling exercises, project work, surveying fieldwork, design projects and site visits.

In year 3 you will take part in a multidisciplinary design project. Together with students of architecture and quantity surveying from other universities, you will work in small teams to solve real-life design problems, just as you would do in professional life.

Years 4 and 5: In fourth year, MEng students study a greater range of advanced analytical topics than BEng students. Year 5 of the MEng programme is largely devoted to a series of case studies, based on real problems and with strong industry input, which are intended to develop high-level problem-solving skills.
