About this course
**Why choose this programme?**
The programme provides a strong platform for pursuing and achieving a varied and interesting career in Civil Engineering, and incorporates recent developments in industry and education as well as the curriculum and teaching principles from research and academia.
Typically, you'll spend one day a week at university rather than your place of employment. There will also be learning activities and training at your workplace.
Three work-based learning modules, supported by your employer, will combine your own civil engineering interests and learning with those of your employer. The programme leads to the award of a BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering (Degree Apprenticeship) and a professional qualification through End-Point Assessment (EPA).
**Reasons to choose Kingston University**
Kingston University was involved in the Trailblazer Group and developed the programme in collaboration with leading employers.
Kingston is one of the first universities to offer the Level 6 Civil Engineer Degree Apprenticeship (ST0417).
This course is accredited by the Joint Board of Moderators (JBM), which comprise the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), Institution of Structural Engineers (ISE), Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE), and the Chartered Institution of Highways and Transportation (CIHT) on behalf of the Engineering Council.
Modules
This programme is offered in a part-time mode, with weekly one-day release from employment and scheduled continuing learning at the workplace. It leads to the award of BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering Degree Apprenticeship.
An apprentice does not successfully finish their apprenticeship without successfully completing the End-Point Assessment (EPA).
The BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering Degree Apprenticeship is designed as a non-integrated programme for apprentices who wish to study Civil Engineering to honours degree level through the five-year Degree Apprenticeship scheme and aspire to achieve the professional status of Chartered Engineer (following further learning). Thus, it offers the ideal preparation for a varied and interesting career in the world of civil engineering.

What are graduates doing after six months?
This is what graduates told us they were doing (and earning), shortly after completing their course. We've crunched the numbers to show you if these immediate prospects are high, medium or low, compared to those studying this subject/s at other universities.
Top job areas of graduates
Do you want to be in demand? This might be the degree for you! We are officially short of civil engineers, and so around two thirds of civil engineering graduates start jobs specifically as civil engineers, and starting salaries are well over £25k last year. Demand for civil engineers and related jobs - we're short of all of them - means that good graduates have plenty of options directly related to their degree when they graduate. This is a subject where work experience can be very helpful in getting a job and many students do work for engineering companies while they take their degrees.
What about your long term prospects?
Looking further ahead, below is a rough guide for what graduates went on to earn.

Post-six month graduation stats:
This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.
It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.
While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
