Overview

Civil Engineering with Geotechnical Engineering

The Level 3 Diploma in Civil Engineering with Geotechnical Engineering blends theory with practical applications to prepare learners for the dynamic field of civil engineering. This course focuses on geotechnical engineering, equipping students to tackle challenges in modern infrastructure, sustainable design, and environmental management.

Civil engineering underpins global infrastructure, contributing over £117 billion annually to the UK economy and employing 2.7 million professionals. Geotechnical engineering, a vital sub-discipline, deals with earth materials and is essential for foundation design, tunnelling, and slope stability. With the global market projected to reach £6.5 billion by 2028, demand for skilled professionals in this field continues to grow.

Modules such as Transportation Engineering and Water Resources Engineering address critical infrastructure needs, while the Capstone Project and Professional Development module enhance practical skills to meet industry demands.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
