Course overview

The goal of the BTEC Higher National Diploma in Construction & Built Environment (Civil Engineering) is to develop you as a professional, self-reflective individual capable of meeting the demands of companies in the civil engineering and construction sectors while also adapting to a continuously changing environment. The course is an excellent stepping stone for people who want to work in construction in a professional, management, or technical capacity, and who want to join the Institution of Civil Engineers. The course expands on previous knowledge and abilities by covering topics such as fluid physics and technology, modern construction methods, highways, construction health and safety, mathematics, structural analysis, and a group project. This course is intended to supplement a student's ability to solve engineering problems using developed technology and apply abilities to a wide range of industrial domains, including design, development, production, testing, maintenance, and operation of electrical or electronic equipment. Students can master modern vocational skills such as study, research, analysis, planning, and organisation, as well as take responsibility for their own learning, be adaptable, and work cooperatively with others.

Fees & funding

Course fee per year: £9,250 The Tuition Fee of the course may vary depending on the institution you wish to study at, as well as your status in the UK. The course is available for UK/EU & International Students and eligible for Student Loans Company (SLC) funding to help cover the cost of your tuition fees and other expenses. If you are an UK/EU citizen or living in the UK on an Indefinite stay, apart from the tuition fees, you could also receive support from the government via Student Loans Company to cover some living costs while studying. The maintenance loan depends on each individual's circumstances.
Fees breakdown:
Tuition fee loans cover the full cost of your course and are paid directly to the course provider.
Student Finance has to be paid back, however, you only make Student Loan repayments once you've left your course AND are earning enough. Repayments vary with your salary, and stop altogether if your income drops too low.
Maintenance Loan pays for day-to-day living expenses like rent, bills, food and books. Unlike the fees loan, it's paid directly to your student bank account once a term and you can spend it on anything you like.
Students can also apply for other types of special support grants, such as childcare grants or Disabled Students' Allowance if eligible.
Moreover, almost all universities offer a selection of student bursaries. These are cash gifts you usually don't have to repay.
