The MEng Civil Engineering with a Year in Industry at the University of Exeter is designed for ambitious students ready to tackle the complex challenges of designing and constructing the infrastructure that shapes our world. You will gain a deep understanding of core engineering principles, including structural behaviour, hydraulics, and geotechnical engineering, preparing you for a dynamic career. This programme is ideal if you are passionate about problem-solving and eager to contribute to sustainable development and resilient infrastructure projects, building a strong foundation in both theoretical knowledge and practical application.
You will study this course full-time on campus over four years, with the third year dedicated to an invaluable industry placement. Your learning journey will involve hands-on practical work, large-scale civil engineering projects, and advanced modules in areas like digital engineering and building information modelling (BIM). You will develop expertise through a multidisciplinary group project in your first year and an extended individual investigative project in your final year. Upon graduation, you will be equipped with the skills and experience for professional roles in structural engineering, construction management, and sustainable infrastructure development.
