ENG372 Civil Engineering Topic Tree - Engineering Technologist (16)

The core of the engineering curriculum is the Civil Engineering Topic Tree. The overall Topic Tree contains around 1,000 topics, covering the range of different specialties within civil engineering. This subject builds upon the knowledge base of topics completed in previous subjects to expand the students technical capability.  Selection of topics will be guided by a combination of workplace needs, individual goals and identified knowledge gaps. This subject takes the student through the Topic Tree to complete the topics necessary to be ready to function as a graduate Civil Engineering Technologist.

No offerings have been identified for this subject in 2022.

Where differences exist between the Handbook and the SAL, the SAL should be taken as containing the correct subject offering details.
