Info about M.Eng program--civil engineering

[sally254]

Hello

I am a civil engineering undergraduate (international student )and is very interested in doing a professional masters programme like M.Eng in structural engineering.

I know that research experience is very much preferred while applying for M.S or Ph.D but what about M.Engg or other professional master degrees? I have done 2 industry internships during my summer holidays and will be taking GRE soon. 

Also, is work experience preferred for professional programmes?

I will be grateful for any help you guys can provide.
