How do you design buildings with a lower carbon footprint? How do we build wooden high-rises? Or create schools where daylight, acoustics, and fresh air support learning? Can materials be both sustainable and beautiful? And what does it take to build cities prepared for climate change?
If you’re curious about how knowledge of maths and physics can be used to improve the way we build, then this might be the place for you.
As a student of civil and architectural engineering at AU Engineering, you’ll work with digital modelling, construction techniques, energy optimisation and material science. And you’ll ask questions like: Who is going to use this building? How does it affect people and the environment? And how do we build smarter - not just cheaper?
You’ll be part of a study environment where collaboration across disciplines is part of everyday life, and where you learn to bring together technical insight, structural know-how and design thinking to create real-world solutions.
