Brunel University London's Structural Engineering MSc degree is a highly specialist course that has been developed to equip students with a broad range of knowledge and management skills to meet the real-world needs of safety and sustainability in the civil engineering and construction industry.
Students will study the traditional elements of structural engineering and deepen their knowledge of structural analysis and design, and sustainable construction. Students will also develop advanced and specialist knowledge on topical subjects such as fire protection, environmental hazards and energy efficient buildings.
Students will have access to Brunel's custom-designed technical facilities for the testing of materials and structures. The latest industry standard engineering software packages are available for them to use in the purpose-built computer laboratories.
During their studies, there is a residential field trip with hands-on construction experience where students will build a scaled-down version of a bridge, building or dam. They will also benefit from guest lectures delivered by industry professionals, as well as visits to construction sites and civil engineering development projects.
The Structural Engineering MSc degree is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM) comprising of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Institution of Structural Engineers, Institute of Highway Engineers, and the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation on behalf of the Engineering Council as meeting the requirements for Further Learning for a Chartered Engineer (CEng) for candidates who have already acquired a partial CEng accredited undergraduate first degree.
It should be noted that candidates completing the MSc who hold an underpinning accredited IEng degree or a non-accredited bachelor degree will need to apply for an academic assessment to determine whether they will meet the educational base for CEng registration.
