Why civil engineering?
Civil engineering is about everything around us that’s built. A career in civil engineering gives you the opportunity to be creative, solve problems, work in a team and make a difference to people’s lives. There is a shortage of civil engineers in training so you’ll be in an in-demand profession. To find out more about civil and structural engineering use this link: https://www.ice.org.uk/what-is-civil-engineering
Why a civil engineering degree apprenticeship?
You can earn while you learn! You will start your degree in September 2023. Through this Level 6 degree apprenticeship you will gain a BEng in Civil Engineering from University of West London.

You will translate civil engineers’ and architects’ designs into technical drawings, taking into account elements such as environmental features and utilities, making decisions and recommendations as to how these are dealt with. You will communicate with clients, suppliers and colleagues as part of this process.

You will be supported all along with on-the-job training and mentoring from our team of experienced, industry-leading professionals.
