You'll be equipped to manage complex projects while addressing social, environmental, and occupational health and safety challenges in Australia's first master's degree accredited by Engineers Australia in the construction engineering area.
You'll also have the opportunity to experience engineering practice first-hand with 800 hours of work-integrated learning, then put theory into practice with research-based learning or an industry-based capstone research project.
By completing La Trobe's Master of Construction Engineering and Management, you will:
- Utilise modern digital tools and technologies such as Building Information Modelling (BIM), digital twins, and extended reality to enhance design efficiency, visualisation, collaboration, cost control, scheduling, and overall project management.
- Apply the latest construction engineering techniques to effectively deliver building and infrastructure projects.
- Develop technical expertise in project planning and execution, construction systems (including quality, safety, and environmental management systems), modern procurement methods (including procurement models, contract, tenders and bids, and supply chain management), cost estimating and control, risk management, and sustainable construction practices.
- Master key business concepts including business models, competitive strategies, engineering innovation and management, professionalism and leadership, entrepreneurship, and financial analysis.
- Access opportunities to support your studies with a $12,000 placement grant or La Trobe's range of scholarships.
The qualification awarded on graduation is recognised in the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) as Level 9 - Masters Degree.
