Our research encompasses diverse areas within civil engineering, covering (though not restricted to) structural materials like concrete, steel, and timber, along with specialized fields such as wind dynamics, environmental systems, transportation infrastructure, soil mechanics, seismic design, energy-efficient buildings, marine structures, project management, innovative materials, and computer-based modeling. This relevant and forward-looking work receives support from industry collaborators and various national/international funding bodies, including the European Union (EU). Certain projects involve cross-disciplinary collaboration, connecting with the university's key research priorities - for instance, some researchers contribute to specialized centers like the Environmental Change Institute and the Martin Ryan Institute for Marine Science.
Within the College of Science and Engineering, we provide research-focused degree programs at all academic levels, from Bachelor's to Doctoral studies.
Our scientific education and investigations play a vital role in expanding knowledge, driving technological progress and practical applications, while supporting economic growth and social improvement. The faculty comprises globally respected pioneers who enhance engineering and computational understanding while developing widely-used technologies.
Consequently, graduates in Science and Engineering fields enjoy outstanding career opportunities and professional fulfillment.
Honours degree from a recognised university or third level college or a Pass degree with at least three years relevant experience.
