This program equips students to work as an engineering technologist and advise in planning, designing, operating and maintaining civil, electronic and environmental engineering works. Students need to specialize in civil, environmental or electrical and electronic engineering. The first year of the program is common with the Bachelor of Engineering program (see separate entries) and includes engineering, mathematics, computing, physics, design, instrumentation, communications and materials and testing. Civil Engineering: In this course students will specialize in an area such as concrete or steel structures, hydraulics, geotechnical, coastal engineering, electronic engineering or engineering management. Students will also gain a wide range of fundamental knowledge and technical skills in key areas such as communications, power generation and electrical machinery, digital signal processing, microprocessors and control systems.
