The Local Government Engineering major has been designed, for the most part, for engineers, technical staff and managers who work for water boards, roads authorities, in Local Government or for consultancies providing services to Local Government.

Depending on options chosen, the course contents may include elements of NSW Local Government legislation, local road design, asset maintenance management and planning for the environment.

This major is only suitable for domestic students, as it contains content that is heavily focused on specific elements of NSW legislation and planning guidelines.

Note: the listing of this major on your academic transcript requires completion of three engineering management subjects in addition to the technical subjects. Students not wishing to complete any management subjects should consider the combined major in Local Government Engineering and Environmental Engineering.
