Civil Engineers are responsible for the design and construction of infrastructure like buildings, transportation systems, water and wastewater facilities, ports, bridges and urban environments. This programme will teach you discipline-specific knowledge that will enable you to solve problems and improve people’s standard of living. The Postgraduate Diploma in Civil Engineering has a focus on preparation for practice as a civil engineer. Graduates do not have an option to proceed to PhD study directly from the postgraduate diploma, as the PGDipCivilEng doesn’t incorporate a Research Project. However, students can use it to progress to the Master of Civil Engineering if they achieve the required GPA.
