Civil Engineer Degree Apprenticeship

• Based at Devonport, the largest naval base in Western Europe, you'll help shape the infrastructure that supports critical defence operations.
• From dockside facilities and industrial buildings to complex engineering structures, you'll work on projects that are essential to the safe and effective operation of the dockyard. Through a combination of placements and practical experience, you'll learn how civil and structural engineering principles are used to design, assess and maintain the assets that keep the site running.
• Throughout the programme, you'll contribute to engineering designs, calculations and technical solutions, developing skills in analysis, design development, technical reporting and problem-solving. You'll gain valuable insight into how structures are engineered to perform in demanding environments, while building the knowledge and experience needed for a successful career in civil and structural engineering.

It’s hard to beat the variety of fantastic opportunities and business experiences you’ll receive. You can expect real world encounters and exposure to exciting projects that will really help you navigate where you want to take your career.
