Description
This course is a collaboration articulated with the Diploma of the Built Environment offered at Holmesglen Institute of TAFE. After successful completion of level one of the diploma (65 per cent average), students may transfer directly into level two of the Bachelor of Technology (Infrastructure - Design, Construction and Management) offered by Monash and complete the final two levels of the degree. Throughout the program, there is strong emphasis on the application of information technology and the holistic development of the individual.
Objectives
The course aims to provide the knowledge, skills and attitudes to build, manage and design the exciting infrastructure projects of the future.
Structure
Entry into the second level of study at Monash University introduces students to university training in transportation, water supply engineering and civil engineering design in some of the most popular construction materials, including concrete, steel, timber and masonry. Level three studiesequip students with a combination of advanced practical, technical and business skills for entering the workplace.
