Develop an integrated learning approach by intertwining lab experience, theory, on-site construction activities and understanding the environmental impact of your work. Engage in Life Briefs, designed to give exposure to real-world applications, go beyond traditional methods of teaching, and bridge the gap between theory and practice. The course is designed by leading regional companies, meaning students have maximum opportunity to gain critical skills for employment. As a BEng degree, this course focuses on engineering design, analysis and consultancy, and also prepares you for IEng (Incorporated Engineer) status. With challenges such as climate change and resource scarcity, engineers have an important part to play in designing, planning and future-proofing our built environment. By studying BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering at ARU, youll focus on the design and analysis of infrastructure. From day one of this civil engineering degree, you will be working on real built environment projects. Our course is project-based, meaning youll be getting hands-on experience and learning to think and work like an engineer.<br><br>It's a practical course where youll learn to carry out site investigations and land surveys, select materials, analyse and design infrastructure and engineering systems, and plan the construction process. There's a strong focus on sustainability and understanding the environmental impact of your work. Youll also become skilled at using computer-aided design and specialist software. Youll learn from expert tutors in specialist facilities, including labs for geotechnics, hydraulics, concrete testing and more. Outside of the lab, there's the chance to join lectures given by guest speakers and take an optional placement year in industry. You'll also take part in three week-long construction projects during your course. All our engineering courses are in line with the new Engineering Council requirements (AHEP 4.0). Accreditation for our BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering degree with the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM) has been arranged when full student output from the course is available.
