Overview

This course is designed to enable engineers and other technical specialists to take a leadership role in the field of environmental engineering.

The course combines a set of key subjects that contain information on the nature of environmental problems together with engineering techniques for their solution. This is supplemented by management and policy subjects to empower the engineer, or technical specialist, to lead multidisciplinary teams working in the field of environmental engineering.

Career options

Career options include positions in government agencies or private corporations, or as consultants.

Additional admission requirements

Normally, a degree in engineering or another technological/applied science field is required. Candidates without a degree, but with suitable experience, may enrol in the Graduate Certificate in Environmental Engineering Management (C11051) and later transfer to the Master of Environmental Engineering Management with full credit for completed subjects.

Candidates with Second Class Honours or above need no work experience; otherwise two years' experience is desirable.

Additional recognition of prior learning

Graduate Certificate in Environmental Engineering Management (C11051) students may transfer to the Master of Environmental Engineering Management with full credit for completed subjects.

Course duration and attendance

Most students taking two subjects per semester require two years to complete this degree. The course is also available to fee-paying overseas students on a full-time basis, taking one year to complete.

The program is structured for evening attendance, block attendance or distance mode. Subjects may be offered as three-hour sessions once per week, or in block or distance mode.
