If you are interested in using your creative skills in a practical way to shape the world that we live in, then studying a degree in Civil Engineering may be for you!
Civil Engineering is all focused on the planning, constructing, and maintaining of human-made structures around us. It’s commonly recognised as one of the most significant branches of engineering, given that most civil engineering projects are because of Government investment in infrastructure.
Civil Engineering projects signify investment, redevelopment, and societal progress. If you’re looking for a career at home or in your study destination, there are many opportunities for you to explore!
There are a variety of Civil Engineering courses that you could study at university including:
Whether you’re seeking an undergraduate or postgraduate route, there are many options available for students across the NCUK Global Network. When choosing options, you should think about the underlying skills of engineering. For example, Physics, Mathematics and Further Mathematics are vital subjects that may be required by your university.
Most students will seek a BEng (Hons) or MEng (Hons) in the discipline. You should look for accreditations from relevant destination-specific professional bodies where possible to ensure recognition in the workplace following completion.
Civil engineering is broad; your career can go in many directions! You may choose to specialise in a specific area of civil engineering, such as:
Did you know that in the UK, The University of Manchester, University of Leeds and The University of Sheffield are within the 2022 QS World Top 50 for Engineering – Civil & Structural!
If you are looking to study in Australia or New Zealand, The University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney) and The University of Auckland are both in the World’s Top 50 in the 2022 QS World Engineering – Civil & Structural Rankings.

At the University of Sheffield, there are a lot of new facilities. I like the fact that there are students from China on the course but I also meet and study with UK students.
