Students will also have the opportunity to carry out a design project which will allow them to concentrate on environmental issues for a large civil engineering project, rather than the technical constraints. Teaching and assessment You will be taught by a combination of lectures, coursework and projects. Practising engineers act as advisers and also contribute to the lecture courses. Assessment is by means of coursework, project work and examinations held at the end of each year. Continuous assessment of course and practical work accounts for roughly 30 per cent of the marks each year.
All years contribute to the final degree classification with increasing weight up to the final year.
You should be numerate and able to develop problem-solving and communication skills. All applicants are invited to visit the School and are given the opportunity to meet staff and students from the course.
