MSc Civil Engineering with Environmental Management

This course is subject to validation.

The MSc Civil Engineering with Environmental Management course is a hybrid programme bringing together subjects from the Engineering, Construction, Transportation, Logistics, Computing and Business subject areas. It provides advanced training for engineers and professionals concerned with building future cities and settlements as safe, sustainable, resilient and adaptable systems. 

The course is multidisciplinary in nature and instates in students the capability of designing systems that are resilient to the extreme climates and emerging hazards; systems that have better symbiosis with natural environmental systems.

Whilst studying on the MSc in Civil Engineering and Environmental Management you will gain an in-depth knowledge of the most recent theories and practices in civil engineering.  You will gain a comprehensive understanding of the principles and significance of engineering solutions that are kind to the  ecosystem, health provisions and environmental spheres.

You will deploy these principles to enhance design and operation efficiency. You will gain an in-depth appreciation of the greenhouse warming effect and the role of the construction sector, which aims to combat this through adopting low carbon engineering interventions, waste management and use of alternative materials; also the impacts of design on the environment.

The programme will help you utilise techniques for analysing and solving problems within the civil engineering context, understand the role of the engineer as an important professional in society and the sustainable built environment and deal with complex issues both systematically and creatively, make sound judgements in the absence of complete data, and communicate conclusions clearly to specialist and non-specialist audiences and stakeholders.
