Communicate effectively on complex engineering matters with technical and non-technical audiences.

Work effectively within a group to design, analyse and evaluate Civil Engineering projects, adopting an inclusive approach and recognising the responsibilities, benefits and importance of supporting equality, diversity and inclusivity.

Develop a methodology based on the critical evaluation of technical literature, using qualitative and quantitative data to provide recommendations to bring improvement aligned with UN SDG’s, through independent research.

Plan and record CPD for personal and professional development.

Evaluate and mitigate risk, including environmental, commercial and security risk associated with Civil Engineering projects.

Select and apply appropriate computational and analytical techniques to simulate complex Civil Engineering systems for planning, designing and construction, with due regard to the limitations of the techniques and scope of applications employed.

Design innovative solutions in accordance with current appropriate codes of practice and industry standards.

Use a range of land surveying equipment effectively for setting out engineering works and for collecting site data for the production of engineering plans.

Select and evaluate technical literature and other sources of information to address complex Civil Engineering problems.

Apply practical engineering skills acquired through laboratory work, to the design of complex civil engineering projects.

Analyse complex Civil Engineering problems by collecting, processing and inferring relevant data, facts and information, and by using first principle mathematics, statistics, applied science and engineering principles.

Develop an awareness and the ability to identify ethical concerns and to make reasoned and justified ethical choices.

Develop planning and control project schedules with regard to Civil Engineering project management principles, commercial and legal aspects.

Apply knowledge of mathematics, statistics, natural science and engineering principles to the solution of complex problems.

Write original technical and research reports in compliance to relevant intellectual property and copyrights.

Demonstrate professional and ethical behaviour with regard to Civil Engineering, involving consideration of Health and Safety, diversity, inclusion, cultural, societal, environmental and commercial matters

Exercise initiative and ethical personal responsibility both as a leader and as a team member.

Develop specifications for materials and methods to ensure quality of engineering design solution and its construction.

Demonstrate knowledge of the holistic nature of Civil Engineering projects and the wider impact on the society, economy and environment. This will include BIM and life cycle analysis.

Communicate effectively through the written word, engineering drawings, clear use of mathematic notation, orally and through effective use of IT.
