Develop the skills for a career as a Civil Engineer in this three year Bachelor’s programme. Specialise in environmental, geotechnical, water, roading and transportation, or structural engineering. Learn to make informed decisions about civil engineering projects, and apply technology to solve practical engineering problems. Explore computer-modelling techniques, civil engineering project management, engineering materials and structures, and construction practices.
There are 5 pathways within the Civil major:
Structural engineering: design, construction, and supervision of buildings and other structures.
Water engineering: including water supply, wastewater or stormwater disposal, river catchment systems, hydrology and erosion management, and urban drainage systems.
Geotechnical engineering: foundation design, consolidation of fine-grained soils, improvement of slope stability, earth-retaining structures, geotechnical investigation and reports, and dewatering of construction sites.
Roading and transportation engineering: design, construction and maintenance of roads, and traffic engineering and urban transportation studies.
Environmental engineering: including fundamentals of environmental engineering, the sensitive environment, and resource and environmental management.
