Course summary

The degree is based around the major disciplines within the profession, such as civil, structural, geotechnical, and water engineering. UEL Civil Engineering has an excellent tradition and reputation. We offer a three-year course, with the option of adding a year-long placement working in the industry. This degree is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM) comprising the Institution of Civil Engineers, Institution of Structural Engineers, Institute of Highway Engineers, the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation and the Permanent Way Institution on behalf of the Engineering Council as:

  • fully satisfying the educational base for an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).
  • partially satisfying the educational base for a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
A programme of accredited Further Learning will be required to complete the educational base for CEng. See https://www.jbm.org.uk/ for further information and details of Further Learning programmes for CEng. Our high entry standards reflect the fact that each of our graduates will be heading for a professional engineering qualification.

We’ll assess you with a mixture of coursework and exams. Coursework includes individual laboratory and research reports, practical, design and project work, as well as group and tutorial presentations and a final-year project. Fifty per cent of the assessment in your first and second year is by coursework and we’ll give you as much feedback as possible so that you can develop and improve your written assessment submissions. In your final year, over half of your assessment will be based on design and research projects.

Entry requirements

Qualification requirements

For detailed information on entry requirements for our courses, please see the individual course pages. We consider a range of UK and worldwide qualifications at the appropriate level and also take relevant work experience into account when considering an application. Many courses have a Foundation Year option for those students whose qualifications do not meet the BA or BSc entry requirements. Applicants should have, or be working towards, grade C in GCSE English and Mathematics (or equivalent Level 2 qualification such as Functional Skills Level 2 in English and Mathematics or Key Skills Level 2 in Application of Number and Communication) Entry requirements are intended only as a guide for applicants. They are not a guarantee of an offer, nor of the conditions that may apply. When making a decision on your academic suitability, we will make an assessment of you as an individual and will use information other than qualifications; which may include predicted grades, performance at Level 2, relevant work experience, previous study at degree level, personal statement, references and any portfolio, written test or interview, to make our decision. If you have any questions, please contact a member of our Applicant Relations Team from Monday to Friday (9am–5pm) on +44 (0) 20 8223 3333 or email [email protected]
