Civil Engineering Beng (hons) in University of Liverpool

You will be introduced to the essentials: structural analysis and design; fluid mechanics and hydraulics; geomechanics; materials; transport and infrastructure; the digital built environment and its digitisation. Year One includes an introduction to programming and a year-long civil and architectural engineering project, which in recent years, has been carried out in conjunction with Engineers Without Borders, an international engineering charity.

You will study maths relevant to engineering; structural materials; computer-aided drawing, analysis and design, and will be introduced to the principles of management for the construction industry. Site visits are integral to the programme, as are various individual and group design exercises.

An exciting part of the second year of our programme is a week of real, hands-on construction experience at ‘The Constructionarium’. The Constructionarium takes place at a six hectare site, specifically designed and built to provide a range of challenging teaching and learning conditions for students. There is an additional cost of up to £250 for the Constructionarium.

The programme gives you the opportunity to undertake an individual research project in Year Three. Teaching staff offer projects based on their research expertise. In Year Three, you can choose options modules based on areas of specialisation of the staff, currently these include: ‘risk and uncertainty: numerical application’; ‘structural steelwork; timber and masonry’; ‘structural dynamics’; ‘earthquake engineering, coastal and estuary processes’; ‘energy and environment’ and ‘materials for durable and sustainable construction’.
