Civil Engineering

About this course

Civil engineering is the discipline concerned with designing, building, and maintaining the physical infrastructure that societies depend on: roads, bridges, tunnels, dams, water supply systems, drainage, coastal defences, buildings, and airports. It is one of the oldest engineering disciplines, and it remains among the most consequential, because the quality and resilience of infrastructure has a direct bearing on economic productivity, public safety, environmental protection, and the wellbeing of communities. Civil engineers find creative ways to solve real-world problems, working at the intersection of technical analysis, environmental awareness, and the management of complex projects. At Nottingham Trent University, this three-year, full-time degree develops your technical knowledge across the main areas of the discipline, including structural analysis and design, geotechnics, hydra
