Civil Engineering - MEng (Hons)

Civil Engineering at Manchester enables you to lay the right foundation for a career in this field with a four-year course that will not only lead to a Master of Engineering (MEng) qualification, but also arm you with the skills, knowledge and confidence to enter an industry that, at its core, makes modern society work. Civil Engineering deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of our built environment, from buildings to bridges, roads to railways - and considers what this means for the future of our planet and society. During the first two years of our MEng in Civil Engineering, the course is broad-based and you will develop a strong understanding of essential topics such as structural analysis, hydraulics, geotechnics, construction materials, engineering design, project management, and mathematics. What's more, you will do so using our fantastic array of facilities and equipment. In later years, you have considerable flexibility to steer your degree towards your interests by taking optional subjects such as renewable energy systems, fire engineering, earthquake engineering, and computational hydraulics. In Year 3, you will undertake an individual research project on an emerging topic in Civil Engineering, and, in Year 4, you undertake an industry-supervised group design project and advanced units on civil engineering design and water engineering. This degree will equip you to enter Civil Engineering professions and fully satisfies the educational base for becoming a Chartered Engineer (CEng). You will also benefit from our welcoming community, where you can join some of the Department's various student societies, such as The University of Manchester Civil Engineering Society, to meet like-minded people, make new friends and explore all things Civil Engineering.
