Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: S112

Here's what University of Bath says about its Structural and Architectural Engineering course.

Integrate structural, architectural and environmental principles to advance the creative and sustainable design of our built environment.

Our course is for creative engineers who want to develop a holistic approach to designing buildings and structures. With us, you'll learn how to use your imagination, ingenuity and communication skills to create responsible solutions for engineering challenges.

In your first two years, you'll learn the foundations of materials, geotechnics, structures and digital design. Once you have developed your fundamental engineering design skills, you'll then explore aspects of sustainable building and structural design in later years.

Our courses draw on the strengths of a joint department with architecture, offering you a different experience from most universities. You’ll work with architecture students on some projects to prepare you for the professional relationships you'll experience in your career.

At Bath, you'll experience studio-based projects and gain insight from industrial guest lecturers, preparing you to tackle the range of structural engineering projects you will take on in your career.

Like most universities they will go on about support but unfortunately it is all talk. There will always be someone to talk to but that doesn’t mean anything will be done about the issues you are facing.

Though it differs across faculties, Computer Science is poorly organised and many of the lecturers are very difficult to understand. There have been many cases of errors in exam papers and failures in coursework guidance.

Lots of clubs and societies to get involved with. Bath uni is very big on sports so lots of opportunities there and a great community feel in the societies. It’s necessarily the most ‘clubbing’ city but there are a few good clubs and the city has a very safe nice feel to it.

Bath is an expensive city to live in. I would say almost as expensive as London except you don’t get the increased student loan. I never tried to access any of the support from the university so not sure what that was like. I know their gold scholarship scheme is really good, except for the average ...
