Combine civil engineering with architecture, and discover their importance for developing sustainable, urban areas. If you're following a career in structural engineering design, this course is for you. You'll focus your studies on structures, materials and construction processes. You’ll learn key design and manufacturing skills and gain a solid understanding of both subjects.

The first 2 years of this MEng Civil Engineering and Architecture degree are the same as our other civil engineering courses. You'll cover mechanics, materials, thermofluids and construction management. In the third year you’ll specialise in civil engineering with a focus on urban design.

You'll put architectural principles into practice through design projects. These are taught by structural engineers and architects, and include:

• an architectural group project, to design a complex building in an urban area
• an individual architectural engineering project of your choice

You'll have access to our extensive facilities, including:

• National Infrastructure Laboratory
• professional manufacturing centre
• hydraulics and geotechnics labs
• heavy structures facilities

Graduate roles you could go into include:

• civil engineer
• environmental engineer
• structural engineer
• transport planner
• coastal engineer
• construction manager
• design engineer
• flood risk officer
