There are 32 London boroughs, the nearby District and County Councils and Transport for London and consulting engineers who all have highway and transportation responsibilities. In addition, there are consulting engineers who have sections dealing with highway design and transportation so we are not short of market nearby. There is an acknowledged shortage of skilled civil engineers with the right qualifications and experience. We have designed this course to take advantage of this demand and give you a competitive edge when it comes to your career.
