Civil Engineering

Civil engineers help to build a better world - from bridges to connect neighbouring communities, to piping clean water to those further away.

I like to think of Engineering as using science to solve problems.

Phoebe Young / Civil Engineering Graduate

Today, civilisation relies more than ever on inventive and resourceful engineers to design, build, and maintain the environment and infrastructure in which we live. Encompassing everything from roads, railways, and airports, to hospitals, shelter, and access to drinking water - it is this infrastructure which makes everyday life possible, and is constantly improving quality of life for more people.

Needed after earthquakes, droughts, and times of war, Civil Engineering graduates from The University of Manchester make a positive difference to populations near and far.
