Program description
Gain the knowledge and skills necessary to become a Chartered Civil Engineer by studying Civil and Environmental Engineering at Abertay. Our undergraduate degree in Civil Engineering is vocational and includes industry work placements. You will be highly employable upon your graduation due to the significant paucity of civil engineers in Europe and Britain.
You will acquire a comprehensive understanding of a diverse array of civil and environmental engineering applications, as well as a wealth of practical and hands-on experience through internships with industry partners like Transport Scotland, Balfour Beatty, and BEAR Scotland.
Practical, hands-on experience
In the second year, you will also have the opportunity to engage in a practical construction challenge. This is a collaborative effort in which you work in teams to plan, project manage, and construct a miniature version of real-world structures, including bridges, pavilions, wind turbine footings, and other engineering projects.
Employment rates of nearly 100% following graduation
By comprehending the interactions between the environment, infrastructure, and buildings, you will enhance the health and well-being of communities, individuals, and societies. Our approach is more personalized as a result of the lower class sizes, which allows us to spend more time with each student. The global paucity of qualified civil engineers has resulted in nearly 100% employment following graduation.
