The standard MEng degree programme runs for five years, while the BEng Honours degree runs for four years. Advanced entry to Level 2 of both programmes is available for well qualified applicants, thereby reducing the length of study by one year. Direct entry to Level 3 of the BEng is possible if you have previously studied civil engineering or a related subject in further or higher educational
establishments.There is an opportunity during the programme, if your progress permits, to transfer from the BEng to the MEng at the end of Semester 1 in Level 3.
A range of teaching methods is employed, including: lectures, tutorials, laboratory experiments, design and research projects with leading research staff, computer aided design, computer aided learning, site visits/experience, specialist seminars, surveying/geology residential camp and the application of professional software.
Modules are assessed through either examination or coursework, (e.g. laboratory reports, structural design submissions) or a combination of these.
what our graduates are doing
Stuart Ross graduated in 2009 with a 1st class MEng Honours degree in Civil Engineering Design and Management. He is working as a graduate civil engineer with Arup, a global firm which works on a wide range of projects around the world. He also won the New Civil Engineer Graduate of the Year Award for 2010. Stuart says, In a competitive market a civil engineering degree from the University of Dundee has provided me with the necessary skills to be successful in the ‘real world’. In particular, the combination of practical and theoretical work, as well as the support provided by lecturers, has not only prepared me for industry but also given me a head start in my professional development.
