Why Study Civil Engineering"
Interested in building remarkable skyscrapers and bridges" A degree in civil engineering might just be for you
Have you ever wondered what it takes to create magnificent structures such as skyscrapers, dams, roads and bridges" It is in fact the works of expert civil engineers that lie behind the planning and production of this craftsmanship.
An example of what can be achieved is the recent construction of the world?s longest three-tower cable-stayed bridge, the Queensferry Crossing, which opened to the public in September 2017. As with any large project, building the new bridge came with its own challenges, such as the weather. High winds in Scotland meant that the bridge needed to be resilient, sustainable and durable.
So, to combat these challenges, Project Manager Mark Glover had to ensure that the exterior of the bridge had a continuous structure that requires minimal maintenance. As a result, the cables that make up the cable-stay bridge were all made to be singular, so can be easily replaced without having any impact on the bridge?s stability. This will allow it to remain open while any future repairs are carried out. Quite impressive, don?t you think" Become the project manager of tomorrow
If you?re now wondering how can you pave your own way to becoming tomorrow?s builder of future projects, it?s a degree in civil engineering that will get you there ? and if you are creative, have a technical mind and love problem solving, this is the course for you....
