MSc Structural Engineering

A master's on the analysis and design of load-bearing structures. Students deepen structural mechanics, elasticity and plasticity, dynamics and stability, and design concrete, steel, timber and composite structures to Eurocode principles. Advanced modules cover nonlinear finite element analysis, earthquake and fire engineering, bridges and structural health monitoring. Laboratory testing and computation run throughout. It suits civil engineering graduates who want advanced design and analysis skills. The award is an academic degree and does not by itself grant a licence to practise as a structural engineer.
