The 60 ECTS ME in Civil Engineering is a broad design-focussed Level 9 programme tailored to meet both the educational requirements for progression to Chartered Engineer status and the diverse needs of a progressive modern Civil Engineering practice.
Students will strengthen their core knowledge with modules on a range of advanced Civil Engineering topics, while improving their versatility and leadership potential as engineers through transferrable skills and personal development modules. The Integrated Design team project is a unique feature of the programme; students take on a real-world design challenge with support from practising engineers. Research experience is gained through a minor thesis, with access to laboratory facilities in the award-winning Engineering Building, Ireland’s largest engineering education facility.
