The job of the
Engineer is to be a problem
solver and my experience at
Exeter provided me with key
problem solving skills that
were directly applicable to
working in the industry. I am
driven by results and would
advise students looking for
employment to bear this in
mind. Be a problem solver,
use a holistic approach and
take responsibility for being
a ‘can-do’ member of the
team. Keeping up to date
with current trends is also
crucial.

ENGINEERING FACILITIES
Our engineering teaching facilities recently underwent a multi-million pound
refurbishment including the re-equipment of student workshops and the
development of a state-of-the-art 3D visualisation and rapid prototyping suite.
The aerodynamics laboratory comprises
wind tunnels with computerised lift/
drag balance and hot-wire anemometry
equipment for velocity measurement, with
the fluids laboratory offering facilities for
the testing of marine renewable energy
generation devices.
Our thermodynamics and energy
laboratory contains thermodynamics
experiments, a computerised engine test
bed and renewable energy experiments.
The structures laboratory facilitates the
testing of full-size structural elements.
Students can also investigate the structural
properties of elements using fullycomputerised equipment including TQ
Modular Structures rigs. The Vibration
Engineering Section’s vibration platform,
installed in 2014, allows the measurement
and modelling of vibration performance in
structures such as bridges, office floors and
stadia. Adjacent is the materials laboratory,
housing an array of tensile test equipment.
We also have a wide range of equipment for
materials engineering and manufacturing,
including 3D printing and nanofabrication.
We are home to the Centre for Additive
Layer Manufacturing, the Centre
for Alternative and Remanufacturing
Technologies and the Centre for Graphene
Science, from where we conduct research
and work with industry on a consultancy
and facility provision basis. We also have
access to the University’s EPSRC-funded
IMB Supercomputer SP3 system, and to a
Beowulf parallel computing cluster.
Students additionally benefit from 24
hour access to the Forum Library, part of
the University’s £48 million centrepiece
development the Forum, opened in 2012
by Her Majesty the Queen.

The environment stands
out for me as a unique factor in
studying at the University of Exeter.
It is a beautiful place to live and the
University seems to be strategically
placed right in the heart of this
part of the UK. Coming from the
hustle and bustle of city life, I liked
that Exeter is serene and studyfriendly but also offers the chance
to experience and enjoy the British
culture first-hand.
Samuel Owusu,
MSc Engineering and Management graduate
LIVING IN EXETER
Students at the University of Exeter benefit from living in one of the
most beautiful parts of the country. It’s no wonder our students are
consistently amongst the most satisfied in the UK.
Set in the heart of the beautiful
Devon countryside, Exeter boasts a
high quality of life, a clean and fresh
environment, and low crime rate,
providing a welcoming environment
for students, with a vibrant and fun
culture and relaxed atmosphere.
With a population of only 120,000,
there are plenty of cafés, restaurants,
pubs and modern shops which sit
alongside Exeter’s beautiful historic
buildings. Most new students find that
Exeter is not a particularly expensive
city in which to live.
The University campus is within
easy walking distance of the city
centre and you will find all that you
need conveniently located in a very
compact area, with the inspiring
medieval Cathedral as a focal point
just off the main shopping street.
The region’s exquisite coastline
and impressive national parks are
only a short drive, cycle, bus or train
journey away.

Today, structural engineering is more
than just design. Expert consultants
are needed globally with a complete
skillset; the ability to design, manage
and maintain structures, but also to
enable existing civil infrastructure to
operate under changing loading and
environments.
These programmes will provide you
with a solid understanding of the
whole process of structural design,
analysis and operation. You will
discover how to design and manage
the dynamic behaviour of structures
using state of the art hardware and
software for performance assessment,
measurement, and instrumentation
to withstand normal and extreme
operational loads.
The programmes are taught by our
internationally leading academic
team with expertise in structural
performance analysis and health
monitoring, structural dynamics,
control, infrastructure management,
systems and informatics.
Successful graduates will be
equipped with specialist skills
increasingly demanded by employing
infrastructure consultants, contractors,
operators, and government agencies,
and can expect to progress into
international senior level positions in
civil, construction and environmental
industries.

These programmes are designed
for engineering graduates wishing
to enhance their capabilities in
urban water design, operation and
management, or engineers working in
the water industry looking to enhance
their knowledge and skills in this area.
They draw upon the expertise of our
Centre for Water Systems, which
is internationally renowned for
its research into water supply and
distribution systems, waste water and
urban drainage systems, integrated
modelling, risk and uncertainty,
whole-life costing, water efficiency,
catchment-based management, spatial
water management, and associated
areas.
The programmes are highly relevant
to the needs of future water engineers
and will provide you with knowledge
and key skills in the broad area
of urban water engineering and
management, equipping you to solve
modern day engineering problems.
Water engineering is of significant
global interest and highly trained
graduates are highly sought after.
Graduates can expect to take on
exciting roles in consultancies, water
utilities, contractors, regulatory
bodies, government agencies, and
international organisations following
successful completion of the
programme.
