BEng Hons Civil Engineering
Civil engineering develops and improves facilities and services that society needs – from the supply of clean water and energy to the design and construction of roads, railways and stations.
Tall buildings such as the Shard in London or the new Queensferry Bridge across the Firth of Forth are exciting examples of civil engineering.
Graduates of our civil engineering degrees develop and renew towns and cities, and improve links with more remote communities.
Solving problems of air, land and water pollution and protecting society against natural disasters are also important aspects of civil engineering.

Job Opportunity Potential
Graduate employers not only ask for a degree qualification, they expect job applicants to bring a range of skills that they have gained outside of their studies, e.g. through work experience, volunteering, part-time jobs.
