Diploma in Engineering (Civil & Architectural)

The Diploma year (Level 4) introduces students to the essential skills, knowledge and attributes required for Civil & Architecture engineers. The course helps students develop in the study of mathematics for engineers, mechanics, drawing, practical skills, sustainability and surveying with creative ideas. A professional approach to civil engineering is encouraged from the outset, including building relationships as an individual and as a member of a team, such as in undertaking a supervised group project on a negotiated topic.

The STI MU Diploma in Architectural Engineering (Level 4) provides the first of three years of study which culminates in the BEng (Hons) Engineering (Top-up) at Level 6, awarded by the University of Bedfordshire, UK.

This course aims to achieve the following for its students:

📐To lay the foundations for becoming an engineer who is practical, articulate, numerate, literate, creative and flexible
📐To Introduce the concepts and principles of Civil & Architectural engineering, and to help students understand to evaluate and interpret these creatively
📐To Introduce the concepts and principles of Civil & Architectural engineering, and to help students understand to evaluate and interpret these creatively
📐To introduce the wider professional responsibilities of civil engineers, including code/s of conduct, working within an ethical framework, health and safety, risk management, environmental, sustainability and societal issues
📐To provide an educational foundation for a range of studies directly relevant to civil engineering, including commerce, enterprise, marketing, innovation and creativity
📐To acquire technical proficiency in design skills, allowing students to look for safe, economic and creative solutions to practical problems
📐To develop a range of transferable skills, techniques and personal attributes essential for successful performance in the workplace, and which require the exercise of some personal responsibility
