Learn the heart of the UK’s rapidly growing ‘Energy Estuary’ and unlock solutions that improve lives through Hull's Civil Engineering programme. With a focus on sustainability, resilience, and innovation, you’ll gain the skills needed to address the challenges of modern infrastructure, from climate change to urbanisation. The course covers key areas such as structural engineering, geotechnics, hydraulics, and building information modelling (BIM), providing a solid technical foundation alongside practical, hands-on experience.

From day one, you’ll be treated as a trainee engineer, engaging in project-based learning where you can plan, build, and test your own prototypes. You’ll have access to resources such as the Ken Swift Manufacturing Centre, the Mechanical Engineering Workshop, and the Material Lab for materials testing. The Acoustic Wind Tunnel Lab allows practical learning in fluid dynamics, while the Robotic Lab and HIVE immersive technologies provide cutting-edge tools for project-based work and simulations. These state-of-the-art facilities ensure you gain the practical experience needed for a successful career in civil engineering.

The programme’s emphasis on real-world applications means you’ll gain experience through laboratory work, industry collaborations, and optional placement opportunities. Our industry connections and partnerships with key industry leaders including Spencer Group, ABP, ARUP, Sewell Group, Mott MacDonald, Siemens, Orsted, McKinsey & Company, Smith & Nephew, and Alan Wood & Partners mean students can gain invaluable insights into the engineering industry, embarking on live projects and site visits.

With a curriculum designed to meet the demands of the modern workforce, you’ll graduate equipped with both technical expertise and practical experience in sustainable design, project management, and resilient infrastructure, ready to shape the world’s future.
