Course outline

This course allows graduates to progress their career as an engineering professional and become a technical consultant or engineering associate. In this associate degree, students develop skills in the application of civil and structural engineering technology. Students develop specialised knowledge of drafting and modelling structural, municipal and environmental engineering, project management and estimating skills. Teaching staff ensure students can synthesise elements of their theoretical and practical understanding through designing and implementing an engineering project to standards applicable to a modern civil or structural engineering practice. Successful completion of this course will qualify graduates to work on infrastructure projects as a civil or structural engineering associate or technical consultant in a variety of industries including engineering, construction, mining and transportation companies, or local and state government agencies.

Students undertake initial study at TAFE Queensland and complete the degree at the relevant university. Duration, location, mode of study, semester intake, electives and specialisations may vary. All mandatory university admission and English language requirements must be met before university enrolment is finalised. For more information contact the relevant university. Note: TAFE Queensland students making transition to the degree may need to wait six months to start with the semester one university intake.

To apply for a combined associate degree/degree, applicants must select the Associate Degree in Civil Engineering for the relevant TAFE Queensland location on their application and nominate their preferred degree/university (one only). Applicants can list the stand alone associate diploma or the combined program but not both. Listing more than one is not needed because they have the same eligibility and ATAR/rank requirements.
