Program Overview

Students who have already completed Year 12 (or equivalent) may start with the Stage 2 Diploma, which has the same course content and structure as year one of the corresponding Curtin University undergraduate degree. Upon completion of your Diploma, you will progress directly into the second year of your Curtin University Bachelor's degree program.


Stage2 - Diploma of Built Environment - Architecture and Construction
The Diploma of Built Environment provides entry into three different career paths:

  • Architectural Science - Learn about building design and construction. Discover how architecture relates to people and how they live. Learn about the communication of architectural ideas.
  • Interior Architecture - Learn how to design quality environments and coordinate the design and construction of building interiors for a diverse range of environments.
  • Construction Management - Learn how physical elements create a structure, calculate construction costs and manage construction projects.


Leading to: Bachelor of Applied Science (Construction Management)
Construction managers work across a range of interrelated disciplines on residential, commercial and infrastructure projects.

This is a management-oriented degree that will prepare you for professional roles in the building and infrastructure construction industries.

The course is designed in collaboration with Curtin’s industry partners, including the Australian Institute of Building, the Masters Builders Association of Western Australia, Broad Construction and Laing O’Rourke.
