Bachelor of Engineering Fire Engineering
This industry-focused programme is responding to the developing skills shortage in Fire Engineering in the construction sector. Many serious fire related incidences have brought the issue of good fire engineering practice into the public realm. Recent events like Priory Hall and Millfield Manor Housing Estate in Ireland and Grenfell Towers in London raise questions about the competencies of construction professionals relating to fire safety in buildings. There is now growing awareness of fire safety design and a growing need to have construction professionals trained in this area. The introduction of the Building Control Amendment Regulations (BCAR) has had a very significant effect on the way building design and construction is managed and implemented. Consequently, employers are increasingly looking for employees with specific sets of fire safety engineering skills for all construction phases including specification, design, installation, certification, inspection, management & maintenance of passive and active fire protection systems in buildings. The course has been designed to allow construction professionals from architectural and consulting engineering practices, construction contractors, M&E contractors, building surveyors, building product suppliers, property risk assessment and insurance personnel, Fire Service and Fire Industry personnel to upskill and gain a qualification in fire engineering.
