BEng Civil Engineering
 |
Introduction
The BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering programme may be studied on a full-time basis over three years or on a sandwich basis incorporating a year of industrial training to gain the Diploma in Industrial Studies (DIS). The industrial training year is taken between the second and third academic years, making the BEng (Hons) DIS programme four years in duration.
Accreditation:
The Civil Engineering programmes are accredited by the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Institution of Structural Engineers and the Institution of Highways and Transportation by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM). The programmes meet the current UK-SPEC requirements of the Engineering Council (ECUK). Specifically, the BEng is accredited as:
- Fully satisfying the educational base for an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).
- 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 http://www.jbm.org.uk for further information in general, and details of Further Learning programmes for CEng status.
Transfer to MEng
The first two years of the BEng and MEng Civil Engineering programmes are common, and transfer to the MEng is possible at the end of Part B provided you satisfy the progression requirements of the MEng programme.
