The main areas and principles of civil engineering are introduced in the first and second years. More advanced subjects are included in later years, together with optional modules. You will undertake a range of activities, including field courses, group-based design work, laboratory work, CAD work and individual projects in your second and third years. Assessment at the end of each semester combines coursework, examinations, laboratory work and projects. Progression through each course is based on an annual appraisal covering all modules from the preceding year. In the fourth year of the MEng, you will be able to choose from a range of optional modules and undertake an individual design project. You will also complete a group design project, designing and planning a civil engineering project that aims to integrate all the disciplines covered on the course. Typical projects include highway schemes, retail parks, residential complex development and water works.

Civil engineers are needed all over the world in design, construction and management positions. By the end of the course, you will be equipped to embark on a career in civil engineering, or other disciplines that require numerate, problem-solving graduates, perfectly prepared to find employment across specialties including structural design, construction, geotechnical, water resources, transportation,and urban planning.
The MEng course is designed to produce graduates with leadership potential, providing the breadth and depth of knowledge to reach the top in their chosen career.
The MEng degree is accredited as fully satisfying the minimum academic requirements for registration as a graduate engineer with the Board of Engineers, Malaysia (BEM).See www.bem.org.my for further information.
MEng Accredited CEng (Full)
Accredited by the:
On Behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for regustration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
See www.jbm.org.uk for further information.
BEng (Hons) Accredited CEng (Partial)
Accredited by the:
On behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an incorporated Engineer (IEng) and partly meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
