Here's what Edinburgh Napier University says about its Civil Engineering course.
This course develops the skills needed to play a senior role in the planning, design, construction and maintenance of major infrastructure
As a civil engineer you’ll help create the built environment around us. Bridges, airports, highways, buildings and railways present their own problems and challenges and need efficient and effective engineering solutions.
You'll learn the fundamentals of civil engineering and develop skills in structural analysis, transport systems, ground engineering, water resource management and transport planning.
Putting these skills into practice on a work placement you'll gain industry insights from site visits, a week-long survey camp, an overseas field trip and input from engineering companies.
This course is accredited by: CEng - Chartered Engineer CIHT - Chartered Institution of Highways & Transportation ICE - Institution of Civil Engineers IHE - Institute of Highway Engineers The Institution of Structural Engineers JBM - Joint Board of Moderators

My studies are covered which is great, I wouldn't be here without it. Of course it's hard to travel in each day but it's cheaper than living closer to uni.

Feedback on work is always respectful to me even when saying what I haven't done right or need to work on. They always provide helpful insights such as going over assignments briefs with us

I like the different levels of the libraries/quiet spaces. Toilets are always extremely clean. I don't live in uni accommodation so have nothing to say on that

The course works well. The modules are very helpful at getting an overview and the timing of lectures each week don't feel like they're rushing through or going to slow. Tutorials are helpful when people decide to talk
