At the discretion of the examiners, a student must pass units CIV2100, CIV2200, ARC126 and CIV2501 to proceed to Level 3.

Students must take FCE2001 Engineering You’re Hired as a core module. A student will be expected to pass the module in order to progress to Level 3. A student must pass the module in order to graduate.

If a student is awarded a minimum of 100 credits at Level 2 and obtains a weighted mean grade equal to or greater than 54.5, then at the discretion of the examiners they may be permitted to transfer to MEng Structural Engineering with Architectural Studies with an Industrial Placement Year (CIVU119) provided they fulfil the requirements of that programme.

Year 3

Core These are a compulsory part of your degree: you cannot change them. units (120 credits)

A student will take

Full academic year
CIV395 + CIVU27, CIVU26, CIVU30 , CIVU31 only..	Year in Industry	ACAD YR	120 credits

A student will take CIV395 Year in Industry before proceeding to Level 4. A student will be responsible for securing a suitable industrial placement in order to take CIV395 Year in Industry. The appropriateness of the placement will be determined by the department's Year in Industry Tutor. A student who fails to obtain a suitable placement will instead be required to become a student for the degree of BEng in Structural Engineering with Architectural Studies (CIVU20).

CIV395 requires that a student will spend a minimum of 38 weeks working in an industrial establishment, the arrangements being subject to the approval of the department's Year in Industry Tutor. A student who fails to satisfy these requirements may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a student for the degree BEng Structural Engineering with Architectural Studies (CIVU20).

Year 4

Core These are a compulsory part of your degree: you cannot change them. units (120 credits)

A student will take

Semester 1
ARC203 CCo-requisites: ARC250 ARC260 ARC350	Humanities 3	AUT SEM	10 credits
CIV312	Advanced Structural Analysis	AUT SEM	10 credits
CIV321 P⇒Is a pre-requisite for: CIV4201 (when the module is running)	Advanced Structural Design and Appraisal	AUT SEM	10 credits
CIV350	Geotechnical Design	AUT SEM	10 credits

MGT388	Finance and Law for Engineers	AUT SEM	10 credits
Semester 2
CIV3201	Integrated Design Project - Concept Design Stage	SPR SEM	20 credits
CIV3202	Individual Project	SPR SEM	30 credits
CIV3204	Integrated Design Project - International Report and Individual Portfolio	SPR SEM	10 credits

A student who does not pass CIV3202 (Individual Project) at the first attempt will be ineligible for the award of the Degree with Honours.

If a student achieves a Level 3 autumn semester weighted mean grade (excluding MGT388) equal to or greater than 59.5 then at the discretion of the examiners they may be permitted to transfer onto MEng Structural Engineering with Architectural Studies with a Year in Industry (CIVU119). In this instance, CIV387 will be substituted for MAS380.

A student who has been awarded credit in compensation of failed units in Years 2 and 4 will be permitted an additional resit attempt in the compensated credits. An additional resit attempt can only be granted where the student has met the requirements for progression (or completion) under the General Regulations for First Degrees.

A student who has been awarded credit in compensation of failed units in Years 2 and 4, where the grade achieved is more than 10% below the pass grade in those failed units, may not be recommended for a degree award that is accredited under Engineering Council rules.

A student who has been awarded more than 30 credits in compensation of failed units across Years 1, 2 and 4, may not be recommended for a degree award that is accredited under Engineering Council rules.

Where a student has met the requirements for the award of a degree under the General Regulations for First Degrees but not the requirements for the award of a degree accredited under Engineering Council rules, they may be recommended for the award of BEng Civil Engineering Technology with an Industrial Placement Year.
