About
Safe drinking water. Clean energy. Reduced emissions. Efficient transportation. All things that make the world a safer, more functional place to live. And all things that are the domain of civil engineers, who work to elevate our standards of living and build quality of life. With both technical and creative skills, civil engineers focus on the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including roads, bridges, railways, airports, buildings, dams and sewerage systems.
The Civil Engineering specialisation will equip you with the skills you’ll require to expertly design, construct and operate the infrastructure required of modern civilisation. You’ll learn how to identify complex problems and determine how to formulate innovative solutions with a focus on sustainability. And you’ll complete civil engineering-based projects using industry-recognised methods, practices and tools.
Areas of study
Construction management, engineering mathematics, engineering physics, fluid mechanics, geotechnical engineering, health and safety in construction, hydraulics and hydrology, soil mechanics, structural analysis, structural design, transport engineering, water and wastewater treatment processes.
Career opportunities
Civil engineer, construction manager, consultant, environmental engineer, geotechnical, engineer, project manager, research and development manager, structural engineer, urban or regional planner.
Professional recognition
This degree is provisionally accredited by Engineers Australia.
Practical experience
You’ll undertake a work-integrated learning activity with a partner organisation.
