This programme is designed for civil engineering graduates and graduates with related degrees wishing to study a general Masters-level course rather than specialise in one subject area. Students can tailor their studies to meet the needs of their chosen career path by selecting from a wide range of modules.
Being flexible in its nature, this Civil Engineering MSc permits students to tailor the programme of studies to suit their own chosen career, benefiting from the range of specialist modules available to all MSc students.
Flexibility also means that graduates of non-civil engineering disciplines may be eligible for study. Please enquire if this applies in this particular case and the University of Birmingham will make an assessment based on previous study and experience.
The taught element of the course takes place between September and May, and the individual research project will be undertaken from May to September. Students can transfer from the Postgraduate Diploma to the MSc programme, upon completion of the Diploma, provided they satisfy the MSc requirements.
Students will develop a broad knowledge base and understanding of the civil engineering profession and acquire problem-solving, team working, and communication skills; all essential when dealing with complex issues in this multi-disciplinary profession. Graduates enjoy worldwide careers in consultancy, contracting industry, or choose a career which is underpinned by a good understanding of civil engineering.
