• Design efficient buildings using the latest technologies, work on water purification and sanitation in developing countries, help people travel safely and quickly, or plan the next amusement park.
• Apply technical skills, including mathematics and physics, to identify and solve engineering problems, such as accurately determining how much weight can be safely distributed throughout a bridge.
• Help farming communities in developing nations by planning, implementing and maintaining important infrastructure, such as irrigation systems for crop harvesting.
• Become an aid worker, construction manager, humanitarian architect, sustainability specialist, town planner, geotechnical consultant or senior structural engineer, among many other careers,
• Work in the construction, mining, agriculture, coastal and marine, transport or public health sectors.

The Bachelor of Engineering Honours (Civil Engineering), Master of Professional Engineering (Civil Engineering) and Master of Professional Engineering (Accelerated) is accredited by Engineers Australia.

Our graduates are also recognised internationally through the Washington Accord of the International Engineering Alliance. Your degree can take you anywhere in the world.

There are many reasons to choose our Bachelor of Engineering Honours (Civil Engineering) as your first preference.

• Our degree equips you with the technical knowledge and professional skills in management, finance and problem solving to create infrastructure that improves lives throughout the world.
• Experience using our cutting-edge facilities, including our Immersive Learning Laboratory, where virtual reality technology lets you receive in-the-field experience and interact with new and diverse environments without leaving campus. You will also use our wind tunnel during your degree, which prepares engineers to manage air pollution, heat-islands and other environmental issues.
• Our Fluids Laboratory is an advanced facility for studying hydraulic stability to help protect infrastructure from rogue waves and mitigate the effects of climate change and develop renewable wave and wind energy.  
• We are home to the MTS 20 Meganewton, a high-capacity materials testing machine, the largest facility of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere, which enables the testing of innovative materials for infrastructure. This facility is vital in supporting experimental research to develop standards for solutions in construction and infrastructure. 
• The Sydney Centre in Geomechanics and Mining Materials, home to the Geotechanical Research Laboratory, Particles and Grains Laboratory, Geo-environmental Laboratory and Dynamix, so you can explore the latest in geomechanics and geotechnical engineering.
• Our Humanitarian Engineering specialisation is the first of its kind in Australia, offering you the opportunity to go on overseas fieldwork trips, and learn from experienced industry partners about how to make a difference in disadvantaged communities.
• Our engineering degrees are designed to ensure our graduates are best positioned to engineer for the digital age, and are embedded with enhanced foundation studies in data and computation.
• Specialise in Computer Systems, Engineering Data Science, Environmental Fluids, Geotechnical Engineering, Humanitarian Engineering, Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Integrated Building Engineering, Project Management, Structures, or Transport.
