In the COAST laboratory at the University of Plymouth, students conduct experiments using 20m and 35m hydraulic flumes to test how different types of vegetation—rigid, flexible, and semi-flexible—can attenuate wave energy. This hands-on research environment, situated in 'Britain's Ocean City', allows students to move directly from theoretical studies to practical flood-mitigation testing, contributing to real-world solutions for compound flooding and coastal resilience.

Specialised Coastal Research

Designed for engineers and physical scientists, this programme provides a deep dive into the defence, protection, and management of global coastlines. You will engage with one of the largest coastal engineering research groups in the UK, mastering the complexities of waves, tides, coastal modelling, and port engineering. By bridging the gap between academic theory and environmental application, the course prepares graduates to develop sustainable, soft-engineering solutions that safeguard vulnerable coastal communities.

• Access to comprehensive, state-of-the-art COAST laboratory facilities.
• Direct involvement in high-impact dissertation projects addressing climate extremes.
• Expert guidance from a research-active faculty specialising in coastal dynamics.

University of Plymouth, situated on England’s southwest coast, is a modern, student-centred university with around 18,000 students and a welcoming international community. The campus blends contemporary facilities with strong industry links, particularly in marine science, health, engineering and business. Plymouth emphasises practical learning and employability, offering placements, internships and project-based modules that connect students directly with employers and local partners.

International students find Plymouth attractive for its supportive campus services, range of student societies and manageable city scale that balances urban amenities with coastal lifestyle. The university provides pre‑arrival guidance, English language support and dedicated international student teams to ease transition and help with accommodation, visas and wellbeing. Teaching approaches combine lectures, labs and applied projects, while research-active staff bring real-world problems into the classroom.

Graduates from Plymouth benefit from strong regional and national employer engagement, which can lead to placements, graduate roles and entrepreneurial support through incubators and career services. The city’s quality of life, lower cost compared with larger UK cities and emphasis on hands-on learning make Plymouth a practical choice for students seeking a balanced academic experience and strong prospects for work or further study after graduation.
