Bachelor of Engineering Systems (Honours) (Civil Engineering)

The Bachelor of Engineering Systems (Honours) is designed to meet the requirements for accreditation at the level of Professional Engineer by Engineers Australia. Foundational core units build knowledge of the basic sciences, practical skills and the processes and philosophy that underpin the engineering profession. Students choose a specialisation from either: Civil Engineering This specialisation develops skills and knowledge knowledge across the breadth of disciplines encompassed by civil engineering, including construction, project management, hydraulic engineering, water and wastewater engineering, structural, geotechnical engineering and transport engineering. Mechanical Engineering This specialisation develops skills and knowledge in three main areas that cover all aspects of mechanical engineering. These include mechanical design and manufacturing systems, thermo-fluid mechanics and energy systems, and mechatronics and control systems. The final year of the course contains a mixture of advanced core units and advanced discipline-specific units designed to build skills in independent investigation, critical thinking, creative problem solving, and ethical and professional behaviour. With a total of 60 days (490 hours) of professional placement in industry during your studies, you'll be ready to hit the ground running as a graduate. All students (including online students) must complete two compulsory on-campus residentials. These are typically conducted over 2-4 days and occur in first and third year (based on a full-time study program).[112798C]
