MEng in Construction Technology Engineering — Master at London School of Computing and Engineering

MEng in Construction Technology Engineering


Course Overview

The MEng in Construction Technology Engineering at the London School of Computing and Engineering is a Level 7 postgraduate qualification running one year full-time or two years part-time. Delivered from the Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering department, the programme brings together digital construction, BIM, modern methods of construction and delivery-management practice for UK contractors and consultancies.

By graduation you will have completed a substantial dissertation or sponsor consulting project, and produced portfolio evidence suitable for senior construction-technology roles.

The MEng in Construction Technology Engineering runs across three postgraduate phases. Phase one covers the theoretical and applied backbone through intensive taught modules; phase two moves into specialist electives and applied group work; phase three focuses on the dissertation or sponsor consulting project, running alongside a professional-practice thread. Assessment is portfolio-heavy, so graduates leave with senior-track written evidence that lands with UK hiring panels and internal promotion committees.

Study support on the MEng in Construction Technology Engineering includes weekly seminars, dissertation-planning clinics, structured feedback on every assessed submission, a named academic supervisor and access to a shared study platform with recorded content and template exemplars. The dissertation or consulting project is scoped in conversation with a supervisor to reflect each candidate intended UK career direction, and every student receives one-to-one guidance on writing to a postgraduate research standard.

The LSCE careers service maintains contacts across UK contractors and consultancies and gives every MEng cohort structured application coaching in the final term. Careers coaching also covers the UK contractor, consultancy and client-side market, professional-registration expectations toward ICE, IStructE, CIOB and CIBSE routes, and the design-and-report writing skills UK interviewers actually assess.

Employer engagement is grounded in the UK contractor, consultancy and client-side market, from central London design offices through to major project delivery teams. Careers coaching is deliberately practical, focusing on drawings, reports and technical evidence that hiring panels actually read. Postgraduate cohorts receive continued alumni access after graduation, including invitations to sector-specific events and periodic careers-service refreshers that keep the qualification earning value across the trajectory of a UK senior career.
