About the course

　　With a strong focus on disaster resilience and disaster management, this course will teach you how to design safe, economical and environmentally sound infrastructure for the community, and adapt our cities and structures to meet environmental challenges.

　　You’ll develop your skills in our advanced engineering labs, learning from experienced engineers who are leaders in their fields.

　　You’ll then apply what you learn through exclusive work placements and projects with leading companies such as Arup, BMD and Jacobs, and with our government partners.

　　Choose a second major or a double degree in architecture, business or built environment and graduate with a diverse portfolio of skills that will maximise your career opportunities. QUT is the only university in Queensland that offers a double degree in architecture and engineering.

　　You’ll graduate with an internationally recognised Honours qualification with the practical skills and experience that will give you a competitive advantage in your future career.

　　Civil engineers plan, design, construct, operate and maintain a variety of structures and facilities that benefit society—from roads and busways to bridges and buildings. They are also involved with the assessment of the impact of projects on the natural and social environment. Civil engineers have a responsibility to produce safe, economical and environmentally sound infrastructure for the community.

　　Careers and outcomes

　　With a civil engineering degree, you can work in diverse roles in a range of industries, including as a consulting engineer, project manager, municipal engineer, structural engineer, transport engineer, geotechnical engineer or water engineer.

　　You might work for government or semi-government agencies, construction firms, power generating authorities, mining firms, or property development or consulting engineering firms, or you might choose to establish your own consulting engineering practice.

　　As a civil engineer, you’ll play a vital role in developing more sustainable solutions for our future cities, including more resilient infrastructure, new modes of transport, better waste recycling, and more efficient water and electricity use. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
