Civil Engineering – BEng

To provide the student with basic competence in Structural Mechanics appropriate to Year 1.

This module introduces and consolidates basic mathematical principles such as Trigonometry, Algerbra and Calculus and promotes learner awareness of mathematical concepts.

This module establishes the essential principles of site surveying and setting out construction works.

This module aims at inspiring the learner to synthesize subject content and generate an in-depth knowledge of Civil Engineering Construction and Soils through a theoretical, analytical and creative approach.

To develop the students knowledge, intellectual skills and competence in the advanced design and detailing of structural elements.

To provide students with the concepts and knowledge to understand the role of a managers in the civil engineering industry and an understanding of the processes of road planning, design, construction and maintenance.

To develop the student’s knowledge of public health and environmental issues.

Module (part A) develops the student’s ability to work independently and to recognise, define and investigate problems.

Module (part B) integrates the third year modules into a major group project that simulates a real life civil engineering project.

The aim of this module is to develop the learner’s knowledge and critical understanding of Contract Administration and Law, with particular emphasis on Civil Engineering capital works projects.

The aim of this module is to develop the students mathematical and analytical abilities to allow him/her to competently evaluate and solve mathematical, scientific and associated engineering problems.

The Civil Engineering I.T. element of this module aims to enable the learner to understand the principles behind construction relevant software and the integration of relevant software into the civil engineering industry whilst also enabling the learner to gain competency in the application of relevant software and IT systems to civil engineering projects.
