本课程包括一系列土木工程研究，其次重点是解决土木工程工程师面临的环境问题的管理。许多工程项目，特别是那些可能会影响土地，水和空气质量的项目，都需要进行详细的环境分析，以识别和减轻该项目对环境造成不利影响的任何可能性。必须考虑此类项目的短期和长期可持续性及其对环境的影响。与学校的所有工程计划一样，土木和环境工程计划侧重于与专业工程实践相关的知识和技能的开发，并具有扎实的理论基础，包括解决问题，团队合作和项目开发的强大要素具有较强的分析能力和领导复杂项目的能力。
This course includes a range of studies in civil engineering with a secondary focus towards the management of environmental concerns that confront an engineer working in civil engineering Many engineering projects especially those that may impact on the quality of land water and air require detailed environmental analysis to identify and mitigate any chances that the project will adversely affect the environment It is essential to consider both the short and longterm sustainability of such projects and their environmental consequences The program focuses on the development of knowledge and skills relevant to professional engineering practice and along with a sound theoretical base includes strong elements of practical problemsolving teamwork and project development resulting in strong analytical skills and the ability to lead complex projects Areas of study within the course include a foundation in physical and engineering sciences along with computer aided design engineering materials surveying and other core civil engineering topics This is followed by more specialist civil and environmental engineering content areas including structural analysis and design hydrology and hydraulics and construction technology and site management and project management The course also includes advanced studies in environmental risk assessment and management water and wastewater treatment water distribution systems and wastewater collection systems waste disposal and management airborne pollution control and the principles that ensure longterm sustainable engineering design solutions The first year of this course includes a set of eight units that are common across all engineering honours courses This allows students the opportunity to develop a better understanding of the various engineering disciplines on offer and the flexibility if desired to switch to another engineering disciplinecourse without penalty after the first year of study
