This course is suitable for anyone already working in the construction industry, as well as for new students. You’ll have the opportunity to follow one of two routes, depending on what direction you want your career to take - civil engineering or construction management. Once you’ve completed the course successfully, you’ll be able to progress onto the final year of one of our honours degrees to obtain a BSc degree if you wish. These degrees are in either Civil Engineering or Construction Management. If you’re already in employment, you’ll spend four days a week in industry, while full-time students will undertake a compulsory work placement of up to four days a week in their final year. Whatever path you take, you’ll gain the knowledge and skills to become a first-class construction manager or civil engineer. Although we cannot guarantee a placement we will support you in providing opportunities to secure one. If you do not secure a placement you will still be allowed to progress directly on to the BSc (Hons) degree course. Future career: Qualified technician construction managers or civil engineers are in high demand, not only in the UK but in all major developing regions of the world. Local construction and civil engineering companies visit our School regularly to recruit talented students for work within the industry. In recent years, many of our students have been offered full-time jobs in the company where they undertook a work placement as part of the course. Among the list of prestigious projects that our students have worked on are the Shard, Kings Cross Station Western Passenger Hall and the Crossrail Connaught Tunnel refurbishment.
