We educate our engineers to meet the global challenges of the future. When you broaden your engineering expertise with a Bachelor of Civil Engineering (Honours) / Bachelor of Environmental Engineering (Honours) you’ll open up a wide range of rewarding career paths at a time when environmental solutions are in demand. Complete both degrees in five years.
Civil engineers are responsible for the physical infrastructure that allows society to function. Your studies will cover the three main civil specialisations in structural, water and geotechnical engineering. Your courses will focus on preparing you to design, build and manage these structures as a qualified civil engineer.
Environmental engineers combine knowledge of chemistry, geomechanics, hydrology and land surface processes. By studying courses in environmental engineering and related fields, you will learn to develop sustainable engineering practices.
Our position as one of the most highly ranked engineering faculties in Australia is recognised through our associate membership of the Group of Eight.
One of only three Australian member institutions of the Global Engineering Education Exchange Program.
Build critical technical engineering skills by studying courses in:
