Bachelor of Engineering (Civil and Construction Engineering), Bachelor of Science (Mining)

This double degree provides an excellent blend of civil and construction engineering fundamentals combined with the practical skills essential to begin effective professional practice immediately on graduation.

In your first year, you will complete the Engineering Foundation Year (EFY). The EFY builds a solid base of the fundamental concepts common to all areas of engineering. The EFY was developed in partnership with industry to create a curriculum that is reflective of engineering practice.

In the first two years of this course, you will develop the basic scientific, mathematical, and practical skills necessary for later use in civil engineering design and construction. Your third year will include applied engineering subjects in structural analysis and design, materials, geotechnical engineering, construction engineering, hydraulics, and professional practice.

In your final year, you will explore subjects related to construction management for large civil engineering projects including construction control, industrial relations, contract law, cost estimation, and finance. You’ll also undertake further study in a range of specialist options, such as environmental engineering, transportation, public health engineering, and advanced structural design. Prior to graduation, you will complete at least 12 weeks of engineering work experience during your vacations.
