The demand of structural engineers nowadays is increasing very rapidly as it is one of the most important field in the construction industry. I want myself to be one of the famous structural engineers in the world especially with good knowledge and best site experience. The structural engineers are the one of the problem solvers in design teams. I know that structural engineering is not an easy course, but it rewards hard work. It is widely respected by other construction professionals for the skills, which are a vital part of unlocking the potential of a project, overcoming its challenges, and most of all, ensuring that it is safe. 

 

This department can provide me extensive facilities, including a strong floor for structural testing, hydraulics lab, large centrifuge for geotechnical research and teaching and atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel.

It also have extensive links with industrial sponsors and other organisations, locally, nationally and internationally.

   Therefore the entry requirements for this university is to achieve a degree of at least Upper 2nd class hons degree or international equivalent with other requirements said as before applying for this course the student should have studied multiple courses in Structures, Geotechnics and Fluids. IELTS (International English Language Testing System) to be at least 6.0 for international students. 

Entry Requirements

The standard academic entry requirement for this Master's course is a minimum Upper Second Class UK Honours degree or international equivalent in a relevant science or engineering discipline.

Teaching & Learning

Its traditional lecture and tutorial-based teaching is supported by well-equipped laboratories for demonstrations and for experimental work and all taught units are also supported within a modern e-learning environment.  Dissertation research provides students with training in research by investigating a novel and a complex problem under the personal supervision of a MACE academic experienced in supervision for higher research degrees. Their teaching and learning philosophy is to teach students about the advanced techniques and support them to apply their knowledge to solve problems both in a research context and in industry when they graduate from The University of Manchester.

Career opportunities

All the students have a demand to work in many countries around the world as well as in the UK, in all sectors of the construction industry. Their past students are working all over the world in some of the best multinational companies including Mott Macdonald, EDF, BP and many others.

Accrediting organisations

The programme is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM) as an Approved Further Learning Scheme meaning that that the qualification can be used to support an application to become a professional Charted Engineer.

Professional accreditation

This Master's degree is quadruple accredited by the following organisations:

·         The Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE)

·         Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE)

·         Institute of Highway Engineers (IHIE)

·         The Chartered Institute of Highways and Transportation (CIHT)

Their minimum entry requirement is at least a 2.1 UK Honour's degree in civil engineering, natural sciences, earth sciences or a numerate discipline.

Structural Engineering and Structural Materials are considered to be continuously developing subjects. As a result, postgraduate qualifications in Structural Engineering retain their importance for equipping professional engineers with the advanced knowledge and skills required to effectively analyse and design today’s sophisticated buildings and structures. 

Entry Requirements

It is also said that each applicant has to submit an official transcript of any degrees earned and of any other credit earned from a higher education institution. It can be a copy formally certified by the applicant’s institution rather than the original degree certificate. If appropriate, a certified translation of the degree into English has to be supplied with the application. If the applicant is still studying or is awaiting results, admission is not formally confirmed until acceptable evidence of the awarding of his/her degree has been supplied.

 

Entry Requirements

In addition to the eligibility criteria as prescribed by NUST for its MS programs, a candidate must possess a bachelor of engineering degree in civil/ construction management/architectural engineering from a PEC/HEC/PCATP recognized institution of Pakistan or abroad.

Its degree is attested by all the countries and have many facilities for the students such as 150 different laboratories, student activity rooms etc. Students graduated from this university have a high chance of getting a job in the selected field in a very short time. It have relation with the government companies and have place about 30% of the graduated students in it.
