Study with us
The unique structure of our programs offers opportunities and experiences unlike any other Australian university.
Our students develop their work readiness by undertaking four core courses in professional practice. These courses develop their applied skills including working in teams, project management, sustainability and critical thinking.
They also have the opportunity to choose an elective pathway – four courses in an area of interest that either complements their degree or allows them to extend into an entirely new field of study. For example, a civil engineering student may choose four elective courses in surveying to complement their core studies, or they may choose to study a language or communications or construction management or history with their four elective courses – the choice is theirs.
