• Apply advanced and integrated knowledge and skills to design and lead the implementation of innovative solutions to complex engineering problems
• Incorporate cultural sensitivity and understanding, including that of local First Peoples, in decisions related to the design and implementation of solutions to engineering problems
• Recognise opportunities to lead the development and implementation of innovative engineering solutions to industry problems
• Apply advanced engineering skills and knowledge, sustainability frameworks, and ethical approaches to address issues of international relevance
• Develop and communicate effective and innovative engineering solutions to complex problems using an adaptive approach to technologies
• Develop and maintain professional networks and work ethically and responsibly to progress their career as a professional engineer

Major: Civil Engineering
This course is designed for graduates from a four-year Engineering undergraduate degree not accredited by Engineers Australia in a related discipline.
The course is not suitable for graduates of a four-year undergraduate degree, with Engineers Australia accreditation in the same discipline. Those holding an EA accredited qualification and seeking a masters level qualification in the same discipline are encouraged to consider applying for entry to the Master of Philosophy or Master of Engineering Management.

Applicants seeking entry who do not hold a four year Engineering degree are required to first complete the one-year Graduate Diploma in Professional Engineering.

This major covers civil engineering materials, analysis and design principles, numerical methods, geotechnical principles and foundation, water resources engineering and management, and structural health monitoring. It also includes risk analysis and management, construction cost and project management, and environmental engineering management.

The laboratory facilities allow you to test the strength and other properties of different materials and structures. These include testing of construction materials such as concrete, steel, soil and rocks, and examination of structural behaviour under static and dynamic loading in earthquake engineering and pavement/geotechnology.
