Course summary

• To provide masters level ‘top-up’ education to BEng graduates in Civil Engineering that raises their educational base to be equivalent to that from an accredited MEng programme in providing the base required to achieve CEng professional qualifications;

• Through an explicit conversion route within the programme, to provide a route for students with non-accredited Engineering degrees (e.g. BSc) to obtain an accredited qualification that enables them (with additional assessment of their undergraduate academic qualifications) to achieve professional qualifications.

• Through the conversion route, also to provide a route for graduates with cognate backgrounds (e.g. other branches of Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science) to Discipline-hop into Civil Engineering and bring interdisciplinary skills into the industry.
