Civil and Structural Engineering

About this course

Civil and structural engineering shapes the built world at its most fundamental level. Roads, bridges, tunnels, dams, high-rise buildings and water systems all depend on engineers who can calculate loads, understand materials, manage ground conditions and translate design ambition into safe, lasting physical reality. Structural engineering adds a specialist focus on the forces acting within and upon structures, and how those structures are designed to carry them without failure. The two disciplines are closely related and studied together here at Bradford. This three-year full-time programme at the University of Bradford includes a foundation year, which provides the mathematical, scientific and engineering foundations you need before moving into the core degree. You will study structural mechanics, fluid dynamics, geotechnics, materials science, project management and design throughout
