Civil and environmental engineers focus on buildings and infrastructure and the environment in which they are built and operated, continually finding new ways to ensure safety and sustainability of operations whilst also protecting the natural world. From safe drinking water and transport systems, to dealing with contaminated sites and minimising environmental impact, the work of civil and environmental engineers is varied, it also a huge impact on our quality of life on a daily basis. World-class civil and environmental engineers require a deeper understanding of areas such as public health engineering (including water supply, wastewater treatment, waste disposal, recycling, contaminated land and pollution control), energy use in buildings and construction, and transport engineering and planning. Studying civil engineering at Leeds will open up a whole world of opportunities for your career. Youll develop and fine-tune theoretical and practical abilities and learn to solve problems using analytical, technical and decision-making skills.<br><br>Work placement: Optional and Study abroad: Optional.
