The programme gives you the opportunity to undertake an individual research project in Year Three. Teaching staff offer projects based on their research expertise. In Years Three and Four, you can choose options modules based on particular areas of specialisation of the staff.

The multidisciplinary group design project in Year Four brings together students specialising in various aspects of civil engineering to work as a team to produce a portfolio study on a project that requires all their skills to be used in a co-ordinated way. Students on the Civil and Structural Engineering programme would be expected to act as structural engineers. Recent projects have included a ferry terminal scheme and an Olympic-size swimming pool.
