About Civil Engineering With Year In Industry Beng (hons) in University of Liverpool
This broad-based Civil Engineering programme provides sound academic training for the professional engineer.
Civil engineering graduates are in great demand. Careers in civil and structural engineering offer some of the highest paid jobs for graduates in the UK (source: Telegraph Graduate jobs: Top 10 starting salaries, June 2017).
As well as covering all the required bases of a civil engineer’s education, key features of the programme are the individual and group projects that students undertake in all years of their studies, applying their learning in context, with industrial feedback and an emphasis in engaging with the digital world of civil engineering.
These programmes are accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators, which represents the four major civil engineering institutions and accredits civil engineering programmes on behalf of the Engineering Council, which sets and maintains the standards for the engineering profession in the UK. The MEng degree is accredited as fully satisfying the educational base for a Chartered Engineer (CEng). The BEng degree is accredited as: (i) fully satisfying the educational base for an Incorporated Engineer (IEng) and (ii) partially satisfying the educational base for a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
A programme of accredited further learning will be required to complete the educational base for CEng. See jbm.org.uk for further information and details of further learning programmes for CEng.
This is a vocational programme which aims to provide the educational base for civil engineering graduates who demonstrate ingenuity whilst being practical, articulate, numerate, literate, imaginative, versatile, confident and inquisitive.
The BEng programme (H200) shares the same core modules as the MEng programme (H202) during all three years of study. Students taking the BEng programme, who have reached the required academic standard in their studies, are eligible to transfer to the MEng programme at the end of their Year Two. In Year Four, the MEng students study more specialised fields of civil engineering at an advanced level including: structural and geotechnical engineering and construction management. Additionally they undertake a mutidisciplinary project, extending across both semesters of the academic year.
