CIVIL ENGINEERING (WITHSURVEYING) MSc /2018/19 ENTRY
Civil Engineering (with Surveying) MSc /
The Civil Engineering MSc at UCL now offers sixadditional specialist routes which reflect theexpertise within the department and expandingcareer paths of civil engineers. This programme isfor those students who wish to combine a generalMSc in the subject with the related discipline ofsurveying.
Degree summary
The programme provides students with a strong academic backgroundin a broad range of civil engineering topics and advanced skills inproblem-solving necessary for a successful career in the sector. Thisroute will also offer you the opportunity to gain specialist knowledge inyour chosen area of surveying and provide a clear path to a professionalcareer in civil engineering.
// Civil, Environmental & Geomatic Engineering at UCL is an energeticand exciting environment. Students have the advantages of studyingin a multidisciplinary department with a long tradition of excellence inteaching and research, situated at the heart of London. We carry outadvanced research in structures, environmental engineering, laserscanning and seismic design.
// This MSc covers all the major areas of civil engineering, reflectingthe broad range of expertise available within the department and itsstrong links with the engineering profession across the UK andbeyond.
// There is a strong emphasis on developing skills within a teamworkenvironment, equipping students for subsequent professionalpractice.
The programme is delivered through lectures, tutorials, seminars,laboratory classes and field trips. The research project includeslaboratory, computational or fieldwork depending on the nature of theproject. Assessment is through examinations, coursework, projectreports and the research project.
Accreditation
This degree is accredited, as a Technical MSc, as meeting therequirements for Further Learning for a Chartered Engineer (CEng) forcandidates who have already acquired a partial CEng accreditedundergraduate first degree. See www.jbm.org.uk for further information.
