Law for Civil Engineers

Our law course for the Certificate in Commercial Management has now been completely revised by Hamish Mitchell, with assistance from Julie Beisner. To complete the Certificate, you need to take four courses chosen from five.

The revised law course is in two modules: Part A deals with general law, with an emphasis on civil engineering where appropriate, including Law of Tort, while Part B deals with industrial law, matters such as health and safety, waste regulations and insurance, again of course from a civil engineering perspective. The course comprises 10 study sessions and 7 tutor-marked assignments.

The course ensures that you will have a good foundation in law before you go on to study C Eng Contracts and other specialised topics at Diploma level. It can also be usefully studied by anyone working in construction who needs to gain a wide practical understanding of law.
