Course Description

Discover excellence in civil engineering with our MSc programme. Immerse yourself in a dynamic blend of lectures, collaborative projects, and personalised research. From structural dynamics to sustainable design, geotechnics to environmental engineering, gain specialised expertise while cultivating versatile skills for impactful careers in both industry and research.

The Civil Engineering MSc programme at UCL Civil, Environmental & Geomatic Engineering offers a comprehensive and dynamic educational experience. Through a blend of traditional lectures, collaborative group projects, and personalised research initiatives, students are immersed in a multifaceted learning environment. This approach ensures a deep understanding of civil engineering while allowing specialisation in structural dynamics, sustainable building design, geotechnics, transport, and more. Beyond technical knowledge, the programme fosters an awareness of engineering decisions' broader societal and environmental context, producing graduates capable of creating sustainable solutions. 

Entry Requirements

A minimum of an upper second-class UK Bachelor's degree in civil engineering or a related subject, or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. Applicants who do not meet this threshold but have extensive full-time professional experience (not internships) in civil engineering or a related discipline can provide a portfolio demonstrating existing engineering and design skills, which can be considered. For non-civil engineering candidates we offer a Graduate Diploma in Civil Engineering, recognised by our accrediting body (the Joint Board of Moderators), which can be used as a pre-qualifying year for the Civil Engineering MSc.
