Course Curriculum

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) at CQUniversity provides students with a well-rounded academic journey through a mix of core units and specialised majors. The core units, such as Introduction to Contemporary Engineering, Engineering Industry Project Investigation, and Engineering Leadership, build a strong foundation in professional practice, mathematics, and leadership skills. Units like Foundation Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, and Applied Calculus equip students with the analytical tools essential for engineering problem-solving, while Engineering Practice Experience and Engineering Employment Preparation ensure graduates are career-ready through practical industry engagement and employability training.For those pursuing the Civil Major, the program offers 19 dedicated units, with 18 core to the major and one elective selected from options like Building Law & Regulations, Construction Economics, or Humanitarian Engineering Project. This major develops deep expertise in designing, constructing, and maintaining essential infrastructure such as transport systems, water networks, and structural frameworks. Courses such as Geotechnical Engineering, Hydraulics and Hydrology, and Water Supply and Wastewater Technology combine theory with hands-on learning, supported by residential schools for key practical units like Materials for Engineers, Stress Analysis, and Geotechnical Engineering.The Civil Major emphasizes sustainable and ethical practice, equipping students to address the real-world challenges of urbanization, climate change, and population growth. By integrating principles of engineering with mathematics, physics, and applied sciences, students gain the technical and practical knowledge to create safe, resilient, and efficient infrastructure systems. Ultimately, this pathway prepares graduates to enhance public safety, improve quality of life, and contribute to the sustainable development of communities worldwide.
