Civil engineering. A firm foundation for your career.
Deepen your technical skills and career prospects with this combined degree program. Complete both degrees in five years.
Civil engineers are responsible for the physical infrastructure that allows society to function. Your studies will cover the three main civil specialisations in structural, water and geotechnical engineering. Your courses will focus on preparing you to design, build and manage these structures as a qualified civil engineer.
Mathematics is fundamental to break-through engineering. It underpins most technological advances that we rely on every day. You'll open up new fields like data mining, mathematical modelling, statistics and predictive analysis. Use your skills in technology, creativity and logic to push boundaries and make a difference in society.
