MSc Structural Engineering

The Structural Engineering MSc at Coventry University is a full-time postgraduate course designed to provide a robust and versatile framework in structural engineering with the application of construction and engineering principles. This course aspires to better equip learners in dealing with world pollution, climate changes and increasing urbanisation. It is about the design and construction of accurate infrastructures to address these global issues.Course Content: This unique program comprises a blend of academic research, an approach to distinguish crucial issues influencing the contemporary world and practical professional insight. The course content reflects the broad array of abilities expected in professional structural engineering practice, covering subjects from fundamental solid mechanics and structural analysis, through to advanced applications in plasticity and finite element methods.Key Modules: Key modules encompass topics like Geotechnical Engineering, Infrastructure Asset Management, Structural Analysis and Design for Seismic Action, Mathematical Modelling in Engineering, Hydrosystems Design and Management, and a Project module. These modules provide a comprehensive range of skills relevant to civil engineering construction, building services engineering, and construction project management.Accreditations: The overall course of Structural Engineering MSc has been accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM). The JBM consists of four engineering bodies namely the Institution of Structural Engineers, the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation and the Institute of Highway Engineers.Future Careers: This course aims to enhance the career of its graduates by providing them with the skills to apply civil and structural engineering principles in construction. It gives rise to exciting career prospects in roles such as consultants, contractors, designers, or subcontractors in the commercial sector, with opportunities both in the UK and internationally.For more information on this course, please visit the official course page.
