About this course
This course has alternative study modes. Contact the university to find out how the information below might vary.
This accredited course provides you with a foundation in the principles of civil engineering, developing your knowledge of how to assess the environmental impact of projects and to design environmentally friendly structures.
You will develop core learning in areas including the design of structures and renewable technologies, environmental hydraulics, environmental impact assessment, water and health. You will also have the option to explore topics such as coastal environments and geographic information systems.
You will put theory into practice through field trips and design projects working alongside students in related fields, such as environmental science and geology. This multidisciplinary approach to project work mirrors what you will experience in industry. You will learn with staff who are active in research and consultancy, with strong links to some of the UK’s most prestigious employers.
You will have access to specialist facilities including a concrete lab, hydraulics lab, soils lab, geotechnical centrifuge, dynamics lab and computer suite.
The option of a salaried placement year provides valuable work experience and you will have the opportunity to learn Building Information Modelling (BIM) to further enhance your CV. You also have the option to study abroad as part of the Erasmus programme.
If you achieve the required standard in year 2, you can choose to progress directly to the third year of the Civil with Environmental Engineering MEng and study towards a masters-level qualification.

This is what graduates told us they were doing (and earning), shortly after completing their course. We've crunched the numbers to show you if these immediate prospects are high, medium or low, compared to those studying this subject/s at other universities.
Top job areas of graduates
What do graduate employment figures really tell you?Do you want to be in demand? This might be the degree for you! We are officially short of civil engineers, and so around two thirds of civil engineering graduates start jobs specifically as civil engineers, and starting salaries are well over £25k last year. Demand for civil engineers and related jobs - we're short of all of them - means that good graduates have plenty of options directly related to their degree when they graduate. This is a subject where work experience can be very helpful in getting a job and many students do work for engineering companies while they take their degrees.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.
While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
