Our courses give you industry-focused, practical training, which prepares you for work as a professional civil engineer. There’s a strong focus on structural engineering, and you’ll work on integrated design projects centred on industry-relevant case studies.<br>Our close links with leading contractors and consultancies enable you to take up a salaried position on our award-winning  Professional Training placements scheme. This valuable experience prepares students for roles in the sector and contributes towards chartership.<br>Around 35 per cent of our undergraduates are on our unique SurreyICE (Institution of Civil Engineering) scholarship scheme, which pairs students with a relevant industrial company early on in their course. Students benefit from paid summer work and a generous scholarship bursary. On our fully accredited civil engineering courses, you'll study modules drawing on Surrey’s outstanding expertise in areas such as water and environmental engineering, and advanced geotechnical engineering. You’ll learn through lectures, tutorials, practical challenges, industry speakers, site visits and field trips.<br><br>Whether you choose a BEng or MEng, you’ll study the same content for the first three years, before conducting a major third-year project on a topic of your choice. MEng students then do a masters year, which covers the full academic requirements for becoming a chartered engineer.
