Level Two
You'll develop your sub-professional skills in civil engineering, such as the ability to design common place engineering artefacts and tackle complex engineering problems in the context of suitable theoretical treatment. At the same time, you'll gain some appreciation for the breadth of civil engineering. Theory is developed in parallel with application, with theoretical insights to be further developed at levels three and four using more complex scenarios.

- Two elective units
Level Three
This level will develop your core professional skills in civil engineering, including structural, water, transportation, geomechanics and project management. The water and geomechanics groups also share another unit in groundwater field, which is a crucial aspect of civil engineering.
- Building structures and technology
- Engineering hydrology
- Geomechanics II
- Project management for civil engineers
- Road engineering
- Structural design
- Two elective units
Level Four
This is a period of specialisation in civil engineering where you'll complete two core units and a minimum of three electives from the civil engineering department. You'll also be able to pursue two electives from anywhere within the University, some of which are multidisciplinary.
