Program Overview

Course overview

The Sustainable Civil and Structural Engineering MSc provides an opportunity for you to develop advanced specialist knowledge in structural engineering, understand how to address the increasing challenges for the industry and develop your skills for the working environment.

Introduction

With the ever increasing environmental challenges, there is strong demand for civil and structural engineers who are practically-skilled in efficient design, green construction and sustainable development and who can play a central role in achieving sustainable adaptation to and mitigation of these challenges.

This MSc programme will help you to develop advanced knowledge and understanding of the novel, inter-disciplinary field of sustainable civil and environmental engineering. You will focus on resilient and sustainable structures and infrastructure, which are exposed to climate change effects as well as to natural disasters.

You will take part in research-led modules in civil and environmental engineering and acquire knowledge for innovative approaches for climate emergencies, low-carbon, sustainable and resilient materials and systems for next generation infrastructure. During the programme, you will interact with several other engineering disciplines and develop robust knowledge in risk analysis and uncertainty quantification.

Who is this course for?

Our MSc programme is designed for engineers, architects and physicists who intend to develop specialist skills and knowledge relevant to novel civil and environmental sustainable engineering disciplines.
