I am taking the IB diploma and wish to apply for a Civil Eng Course. Does anyone know a list of Uni's that has this course and are not too tough in entry requirements. Abount (30-34) points in the IB diploma.

Interesting! Surely your teachers will have shown you UCAS and its wonderful search systems

http://search.ucas.co.uk/cgi-bin/hsrun/search/search/StateId/RgyqlwE9ymAPOpMvt3M0PO0ZRXedw-UnHL/HAHTpage/search.HsKeywordSuggestion.whereNext?query=2171&word=CIVIL+ENGINEERING&single=N

the link is dead.

So...

go to ucas.ac.uk

Course search

search for courses

search by subject

click c

go to civil engineering and then choose all civ eng courses.

The top unis in my opinion (and not in any particular order) are

Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester, Liverpool, Loughborough, Birmingham, Bath, Bristol, Cardiff, Swansea, Imperial and Southampton.

Surrey is highly thought of in the industry as well......I'm not sure of the exact numbers but it's probably around half of the people on the course who are being sponsored whilst here.
Remember that if your grades are lower you can always start on a BEng and transfer to an MEng later on in your degree...

Most uni's require HL Math.. My school does not offer Math hl, they offer sl only. Shud i like contact every single uni that am going to apply to to explain my situation.. i cant find any that are satisfied with SL math :frown:

as i said somewhere else...they all need HL math.
but if you call them up i think they shuld understand...
really they shuld require A-level students to do F-math because asking us to do HL math but not A-levels student to do the equivalent is just a load of BS.
