Civil Engineering with Foundation Year

Summary

This programme is not available to international students. Instead, international students should apply for our international foundation programmes delivered by our International Study Centre on campus. For more information please visit International Study Centre.

Civil Engineers often find themselves at the heart of technological developments within a wide range of engineering industries. From mega infrastructure to water transfer schemes, you’ll have the chance to make a difference in a way that is important to you.

Our integrated foundation degrees are for those of you who possess the capability to pursue a degree but do not have the pre-requisite qualifications to directly apply to your desired course. The duration of the foundation element is one year, and, if you successfully pass, you will automatically progress on to the degree.

Through studying Civil Engineering you’ll be taking your first step to a rewarding career in an industry with significant earning potential. You’ll hone and develop the skills you need to drive forward an increasingly important sustainability agenda, for instance, in the construction, energy, transport, or environmental sectors.

Why study Civil Engineering BEng(Hons) at Huddersfield?
Civil engineering is one of the oldest fields of engineering. It impacts virtually all aspects of our daily lives, with a degree in this subject setting you up to make your mark on the functioning of many of the structures we rely upon, from skyscrapers and bridges, to railways and flood defences. You’ll be taught by academics who are also professional engineers, many of whom have years of industry and research experience.

During the course, you’ll study the fundamental principles of statics, dynamics, materials, geotechnics, and hydraulics, with design, construction, business, and sustainability considerations. This course has been designed to provide you with flexibility in your choice of engineering career pathways after graduation.

Within our civil engineering subject area, our degree programmes share the same second year of study, which means you can leave your options open until the start of your third year.

In your second and third year, you'll take part in our problem-based learning initiative, EnABLE (Engineering in an Activity Based Learning Environment). This will give you the opportunity to work in small teams in a supportive and friendly competitive environment and reflects how industry works. You’ll solve real, civil engineering problems and test your solutions against other groups.
