About this course

Civil engineering shapes the world in the most literal sense: the roads, bridges, tunnels, dams, water systems, and buildings that underpin every aspect of modern civilisation are the products of civil engineering thought and practice. It is a discipline that combines structural mechanics, geotechnics, hydraulics, materials science, and environmental engineering with the project management and communication skills needed to bring complex infrastructure from concept to completion. Civil engineers work at vast scales, from major transport networks to urban drainage, and their decisions have lasting consequences for communities and environments. Oxford University's four-year full-time Civil Engineering programme is among the most rigorous in the world. You will study the scientific and mathematical foundations of the discipline in depth, covering structural analysis and design, soil mechan
