Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering
Nationally Recognised Vocational Education and Training (VET)This comprehensive qualification in civil and structural engineering could see you working on projects ranging from skyscrapers to intricate road designs.
This course will extend your study of the design and construction of civil works like dams, structures and pipe networks that is covered in the Diploma course.
While the emphasis is on producing working drawings for civil works which are used to communicate the engineers designs to the workers involved in constructing the works, you can participate more in the design decisions that are made.
You will learn a range of engineering drafting standards and receive exposure to CAD programs selected from autocad, Revit and 12D. You will extend your ability to address technical issues beyond what is achieved in the Diploma course.
