Why study Civil Engineering?

All of the world’s most incredible built structures are the results of Civil Engineering. The tallest buildings, the longest bridges, the largest dams, all exist because of this discipline. Even more critically, things like our water and energy systems all run off the genius of civil engineers.

Civil Engineering, in simple terms, is the engine of the world, and being qualified to work in this field can lead to world-changing opportunities. You could one day be working on the sustainable solar or hydroelectric energy project that helps fix the climate change crisis. You might be helping to build the public museum that will inspire generations of visitors.

Whichever direction, careers in Civil Engineering are diverse, challenging and often hugely rewarding.
