Build a global career
Civil engineers design, build and maintain the infrastructure that underpins modern life. They make sure bridges, roads, tunnels, railways, dams, airports and water channels meet the needs of our society in a sustainable way.
The University of Adelaide is ranked 17 in the world for Civil Engineering*.
What will you do
Our Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)(Civil) has a strong focus on design. You’ll learn from award-winning academics in state-of-the-art facilities as you:
study structural design and mechanics in depth
access new technologies forming the basis of future design practice
work on real-life projects
interact with professionals through an industry-led design practice course
complete an eight-week practical experience.
Where could it take you
You will graduate as an accredited engineer. You might supervise major water projects or the building of sea-bridges. You could connect remote communities as a road and highway engineer. Perhaps you’ll design high-speed railways or help with the construction of an Australian hyperloop.
