Civil engineers are concerned with the design, construction and improvement of our built environment. This degree provides you with the technical expertise and management skills needed to plan, design, construct and maintain facilities such as buildings, bridges, dams, water supply systems, waste treatment systems, road and rail networks, and air and sea ports. You will gain comprehensive civil engineering theory as well as hands-on practical work and real-life projects to get you job-ready or use the course as a pathway into research or further learning.<br><br>Students who successfully complete this course will be able to:<br><br>apply coherent and advanced knowledge of the chosen major in engineering in diverse contexts and applications using critical thinking and judgment<br>apply knowledge of research principles and methods to plan and execute a piece of research with some independence, as preparation for research higher degrees<br>apply problem solving, design and decision-making methodologies to identify and provide innovative solutions to complex problems with intellectual independence<br>apply abstraction, mathematics and engineering fundamentals to the analysis, design and operation of a model, using appropriate engineering methods and tools<br>communicate proficiently in professional practice to a variety of audiences, function as an effective member or leader of a diverse team, and use the basic tools and practices of project management within project work<br>demonstrate professionalism, integrity, ethical conduct, professional accountability and an awareness of professional engineering practice in a global and sustainable context<br>reflect on and take responsibility for their own learning and self-management processes, and manage their own time and processes effectively by regularly reviewing of personal performance as a means of managing continuing professional development and lifelong learning.
