A dissertation will further enhance your research skills, building your specialist knowledge and industry links. Public or private sector graduate employment opportunities may be found in built environment disciplines or careers such as civil engineering, transportation, public health or environmental engineering, dealing key activities such as utilities, construction, design, infrastructure, sustainability, environmental and traffic impacts and waste management. International students may avail of the 2-year applied research option.

Getting in
As the university states it
Applicants should either possess an Honours degree or equivalent qualification, in a Civil Engineering or similar area from a recognised institution or an equivalent professional qualification, for MSc entry. Entry to the PgDip may be from a non-honours degree for those seeking chartered status via a ‘technically focused MSc’. Exceptionally, we will admit students with non-engineering related qualifications provided they have significant industry /professional experience. In exceptional circumstances, where an individual has substantial and significant experiential learning, a portfolio of written evidence demonstrating the meeting of the graduate qualities (including subject-specific outcomes, specified by the Course Committee) may be considered as an alternative entrance route. Evidence used to demonstrate graduate qualities may not be used for exemption against modules within the programme.
