BEng (Hons) Civil and Environmental Engineering

Civil and environmental engineers focus on buildings and infrastructure and the environment in which they are built and operated, continually finding new ways to ensure safety and sustainability of operations whilst also protecting the natural world. From safe drinking water and transport systems, to dealing with contaminated sites and minimising environmental impact, the work of civil and environmental engineers is varied and has a huge impact on our quality of life on a daily basis. This JBM-accredited degree develops civil and environmental engineers who actively contribute to sustainable and economic growth whilst maintaining the highest ethical standards and delivering the infrastructure we all rely on in everyday life. At Leeds, sustainable development is integrated into teaching and learning throughout the degree. You’ll focus on design and engineering projects which minimise society’s impact on the environment, reduce the temporary borrowing of finite materials and resources, while maximising societal benefit. You’ll also develop and fine-tune theoretical and practical abilities and learn to solve problems using analytical, technical and decision-making skills – all attributes sought after by employers in industry. This is a practical course so you’ll also have access to excellent laboratory facilities and a design studio, as well as extensive library facilities and computing equipment, including industry-standard software such as Revit (Building Information Modelling), IES (dynamic thermal modelling) and Robot (structural analysis).

A-level: AAB with an A in Mathematics Where an A-Level Science subject is taken, we require a pass in the practical science element, alongside the achievement of the A-Level at the stated grade. GCSE: English Language grade 4 (C) or higher, or an equivalent English language qualification. We will accept Level 2 Functional Skills English instead of GCSE English. Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), International Project Qualification (IPQ) and Welsh Baccalaureate Advanced Skills Challenge Certificate (ASCC): We recognise the value of these qualifications and the effort and enthusiasm that applicants put into them, and where an applicant offers an A in the EPQ/IPQ/ASCC we may make an offer of ABB at A-level including A in Mathematics. All applicants must be studying Mathematics at level 3. For most students, this requirement is fulfilled by achieving the required grade in A-level Maths. Applicants for whom this requirement is to be fulfilled via qualifications other than A-levels (eg BTEC Maths and Additional/Further Maths modules) may be required to take a diagnostic Maths test in addition to their other level 3 maths studies. This is to ensure a suitable level of mathematical literacy. Access to HE Diploma Pass 60 credits overall with 45 credits at Level 3, 30 credits with Distinction (including an appropriate number of Mathematics modules) and the remaining 15 credits with Merit or above. BTEC DDD with Distinctions in all Mathematics units including Maths and Further Maths (and/or other appropriate maths units) plus an interview and diagnostic Maths test. Cambridge Pre-U D3, D3, M2 including D3 in Mathematics. International Baccalaureate 16 points at higher level to include 6 points in Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation or 5 points in Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches. Irish Leaving Certificate (higher Level) H2 H2 H2 H2 H2 H2 including Mathematics. Scottish Highers / Advanced Highers AB at Advanced Higher level, including Mathematics, and AABBB at Higher level. T-Levels T Level in Design, Surveying and Planning for Construction at Distinction, with A level Mathematics at grade B or higher.
