Civil and Structural engineers create and maintain much of the physical infrastructure of society while managing and conserving our natural resources. The goal is to do this in a sustainable manner. This ensures that we can provide adequate infrastructure and natural resources for current generations, without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same. Civil engineers are responsible for the planning, design and construction of bridges, buildings, structures, roads, water supply, dams, pipelines, sewerage treatment facilities, drainage, pollution control equipment and coastal management facilities.
The program has an emphasis on engineering problem solving and design and analysis using modern, computer-based methods.
Well-suited to graduates wanting more than the one year Masters engineering program, this program gives the option of studying technical courses at an advanced level and the opportunity to engage in a research project.
A 48-unit program, students will complete the requirements for the Master of Engineering, with additional study comprising 12 units of more advanced technical coursework. A project to the value of 12 units introduces candidates to research.
Intending students should consult the program coordinator early in the year in which they plan to study to check when particular courses or projects will be available.
The 48-unit program includes core courses designed to provide generic skills applicable across all fields of engineering. Electives are discipline specific civil and structural engineering courses that provide additional technical material at a level beyond that of a first engineering degree.
