MEng Civil & Transportation Engineering

... United Kingdom
... Edinburgh Napier University

Course Overview

As a civil engineer or transportation specialist, you'll help create the built environment around us.

Bridges, airports, highways, buildings, and railways present problems and challenges and need efficient and effective engineering solutions.

You'll learn the fundamentals of civil engineering and develop skills in structural analysis, transport systems, ground engineering, water resource management, and transport planning.

Putting these skills into practice on a work placement, you'll gain industry insights from site visits, a week-long survey camp, an overseas field trip, and input from engineering companies.
