Units indexed by faculty Bachelor of Civil and Environmental EngineeringCourse code: 3274 + Course abbreviation: BCivEnvEng + Total credit points required: 192 + 4 years full-time, 8 years part-time Study mode and course locationOn-campus (Gippsland) Course descriptionThe course is directed towards students seeking a broad base of knowledge and skills in the sustainable implementation and management of civil engineering infrastructure and solutions in a manner that minimises adverse impacts on the environment. Graduates will be trained in core engineering knowledge and skills, complemented by units from science, mathematics, environmental management and environmental technology. In short, they are to be equipped to be civil and environmental engineers who solve problems, with a capacity for civil engineering design and a sound understanding of environmental systems. Course structureLevel 1 includes basic sciences such as mathematics and chemistry, as well as introductory engineering units and an introduction to environmental science. The two engineering units provide a basis for civil engineering studies and will overlap with similar units offered at Clayton. They will have material associated with environmental engineering added to supplement them. At level 2, students will undertake studies mainly in the areas of civil and environmental engineering. These include geomechanics, structures, hydrology and water supply, as well as environmental modelling. Basic mathematics will also be continued. The civil engineering units will overlap with similar units offered at Clayton and will have material associated with environmental engineering added to supplement them. Level 3 and 4 units further extend studies in civil and environmental engineering design and analysis with increasingly complex tasks, as well as providing more advanced studies in transport, environmental management and environmental technology.
