Aim
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Civil and Construction Management) uses an industry focused, project-based
teaching and learning approach to provide professional civil engineers with the construction and project
management skills needed for future leadership of diverse, interdisciplinary teams undertaking design and
construction projects that require solutions to complex problems in a socially and culturally appropriate manner.

construction projects that require solutions to complex problems in a socially and culturally appropriate manner.
Content & Structure
The program consists of a common first year across all Engineering disciplines. The first two years of the
program provide an introduction to the main areas available in civil engineering, a broad base in engineering,
science, and maths, as well as other skills such as design, problem solving, team work and communication that
are essential for professional practice as an engineer. In third year students focus in detail on construction
management, water and geotechnical engineering - and their interaction with the environment. Third year
continues the professional practice development through a focus on business management knowledge required
by engineers. Half of fourth year is devoted to major projects, both design and research, with the remainder
being specialist courses. Work-integrated learning is facilitated through the UniSA STEM Professional Practice
Program, requiring students to gain at least 450 hours (60 days FTE) of skills and competencies through a range
of engagement activities such as placements, internships, guest lectures, industry panels, site visits, networking
and events. Industry internship options are also available.
