Why study Civil Engineering at Bristol? If you are creative, enjoy design and aspire to improve the built environment we live in, then civil engineering is for you. Our fully accredited courses give you the skills to tackle global environmental problems, from providing safe drinking water and renewable energy to developing disaster-resilient and sustainable infrastructure. You will learn how to design large and unique structures such as buildings, bridges, dams and coastal defences.
Bristol offers research-led teaching to shape the next generation of engineers. In the 2017 National Student Survey, our department scored ninety-five per cent for student satisfaction, demonstrating our commitment to students.
We equip you to become a leader by sharing the latest innovations from leading international researchers and professional institutions. Our state-of-the-art geotechnical, structural and hydraulic water engineering facilities are world class and you will use these in your learning. You will develop your technical and project management skills and be encouraged to think innovatively, thus enhancing your employability.
Through our dedicated Industrial Liaison Office, students benefit from an industrial mentor and develop practical engineering experience in design offices and on construction sites. Our internship scheme attracts a wide range of technology and engineering companies, allowing you to make important connections for the future.
There are huge engineering challenges to be solved over the next 50 years, such as tackling climate change, inventing creative energy solutions and renewing our infrastructure. Our graduates are highly sought after by top employers, including civil engineering consultancies, utility companies, the army, and petroleum, public transport, power generation and supply companies.

BEng/MEng Civil Engineering A-levels A*AA (AAB†
) IB 38 (34† )
The first two years provide a strong foundation in engineering, including structures, mathematics, soil and fluid mechanics, computing and surveying, as well as optional units. You may transfer between the BEng and MEng in the first two years. More optional units are introduced in the third year, together with key professional skills and a major investigative research project.
Design is central to the courses and is reflected in the projects you will undertake. In the first year, you will develop a solution to an open- ended problem – designing and making a model bridge. The second year includes steel work, reinforced concrete and geotechnical design. Among other activities in the third year, you will fully design a water supply system. In the fourth year of the MEng, there is a group design project based on real problems identified through our industry links.
MEng Civil Engineering with Study Abroad A-levels A*AA (AAB†
) IB 38 (34† )
Our exchange programmes are a great opportunity to broaden your view of the world and experience a different culture. The course gives you the chance to study civil engineering at one of our partner universities in Australia, Canada, the US, Hong Kong or Singapore in your third year. There is no direct entry on to the course, but you can transfer from the other courses if you reach a high academic standard in your first two years. Your course of study overseas will mirror the third-year curriculum at Bristol.
MEng Civil Engineering with Study in Continental Europe A-levels A*AA (AAB†
) IB 38 (34† )
This degree includes language units in years one and two to prepare you for spending your third year at one of our European partner universities. While abroad, you will study a range of civil engineering topics according to a personalised study plan that mirrors the third-year curriculum at Bristol.
