BEng (Hons) Budownictwo

Civil engineers create, improve and protect the infrastructure that supports everyday life. Gain the skills to successfully plan, manage and implement major engineering projects, and open up exciting career opportunities, with a civil engineering degree.

Designed around real-world problem solving, and delivered from our new £65 million engineering hub, our accredited BEng pathway builds your knowledge to an advanced level. Initially focusing on structures, surveying and project planning, you will progress to study water resources, geotechnics and seismic engineering.

With a focus on your future, you will also develop transferable skills and learn about the decision-making methods used by the industry. You also have the option to include an industry placement year, where you can gain additional workplace skills and boost your employability once you graduate.
