The MEng Environmental and Civil Engineering at Queen's University Belfast is designed for aspiring chartered engineers who aim to address critical global challenges at the intersection of infrastructure development and environmental sustainability. You will gain a robust foundation in civil engineering principles, learning to integrate environmental science and geology to create responsible and resilient built environments. This degree equips you with the technical expertise, management acumen, and professional skills essential for a career shaping our cities and protecting our planet, preparing you for the demands of modern engineering practice.
This integrated Master's programme is studied full-time on campus over four years, blending theoretical knowledge with practical application through extensive design and laboratory work. You will progress from fundamental engineering mathematics and materials in Stage 1 to core civil engineering subjects like geotechnics, structures, hydraulics, and highways in Stages 2 and 3. In your final year, you will collaborate on large-scale integrated design projects and undertake a substantial individual research project, focusing on advanced environmental engineering and construction management. You will graduate prepared for diverse career paths in water engineering, waste management, transportation, and sustainable infrastructure development.
