You see the world through a unique lens and that’s exactly what we need. We embrace how you see things differently – it’s essential for creating a sustainable future.
Arup is a global consultancy with advisory and technical expertise across more than 150 disciplines. We guide, plan and design the future of the built environment. Globally, each year we recruit hundreds of graduates and students who help us see things differently and solve the most complex challenges facing our clients, climate and communities.
Our Structural Engineering projects range in scale from the inception of major infrastructure down to alterations to a local primary school building. Some are pure art; others exist only to be functional. They are all rooted in our core desire to shape a better world and to do work that is interesting and rewarding. One of our teams is helping finish Gaudi's astonishing church of La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, another is fixing significant problems that threaten a hospital. One team is reimagining the use of an existing commercial building, another is designing the stations for a new railway line.
We are currently recruiting Structural Engineering students for a 6-week summer internship with our Buildings teams across the UK. This is an excellent opportunity for a student that is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the Building Design sector to join a multi-disciplinary team.
Typical day to day tasks may include carrying out structural calculations, analysis and modelling, and finding structural engineering solutions; choosing structures and details that are economical and practical, that minimise embodied carbon and achieve the project sustainable development goals; communicating through drawings, sketches, digital modelling, calculation documents, building information modelling, meetings, explanations, presentations, discussions, persuasions, emails, written reports, chats and electronic messages.
