The Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering and Architecture program at the University of Southampton Malaysia offers a unique and comprehensive blend of civil engineering and architecture, emphasizing their significance in developing sustainable and thriving urban areas. This course is designed for aspiring professionals interested in pursuing a career in structural engineering design. Students will specialize in architecture and urban design while also gaining a solid foundation in subjects such as structural and geomechanical engineering. Throughout the program, students will develop essential design and manufacturing skills. The initial two years cover core civil engineering subjects including mechanics, materials, thermofluids, and construction management, while the third year focuses on specialization in civil engineering with a particular emphasis on urban design. This integrated approach equips graduates with a diverse skill set to tackle the intricate challenges of urban development, enabling them to create innovative and sustainable urban spaces that enhance the well-being and quality of life for communities.

Year 1 overview

The first year provides a solid grounding in engineering science and design, with a focus on civil and environmental engineering. 

Core modules cover: 

  • maths 
  • mechanics 
  • structures 
  • materials 
  • thermofluids 
  • design and computing

Through workshops and a design and manufacture project, we'll introduce key design skills, such as sketching, model-making and computing. These will also help you develop skills like: 

  • observation 
  • critical thinking 
  • team work 
  • communication 

At the end of the year you'll take part in the Constructionarium, a week-long activity in Norfolk. 

Year 2 overview

You'll further develop your core design and engineering skills. 

You’ll study the Liveable Cities module, exploring the liveability in a city, with specific sessions including urban design, waste management, transport, energy, as well as site visits.   

A group design project will build on your design skills from year 1 and learning from Liveable Cities. You’ll design a significant physical engineering change to a city, for instance a bridge or flooding scheme, and develop the deployment plan.  

You'll also study topics that include: 

  • maths and statistics 
  • structural analysis and design 
  • materials 
  • soil mechanics 
  • hydraulics 

A group design project will help you build on the design skills introduced in year 1. 

Year 3 overview

You’ll be introduced to urban design, and you'll gain a deeper understanding of structures and geotechnics. 

An architectural design module builds on abilities gained in your first 2 years. You'll discover and experiment with individual design methodologies and processes in a real-world setting. This module enables you to work in a similar environment to a professional design office - something that will help you develop the working and communication practices that exist within industry.

An individual research project will let you explore your own interests. In the past, students have considered why concrete floor slabs fail, or investigated the erosion and retreat of coastal cliffs. Some student projects are run in collaboration with top institutions, or can lead to publications in international peer-reviewed journals. 

Year 4 overview

In your final year you will:

  • study design, project management and teamwork, vital transferable skills for a successful graduate career
  • take part in an architectural group design project where you’ll apply your knowledge to the design of a complex building or structure in an urban context
  •  undertake an architectural engineering project, where you’ll consider the social, economic, cultural, technical and environmental aspects of design
  • study project economics and management, learning about how projects work in financial, economic, social and environmental terms
  • choose from a wide range of specialist optional modules
