COURSE DESCRIPTION
Gain the skills and knowledge you’ll need to enter the diverse and rewarding field of environmental engineering.
This course offers you the chance to specialise in fields of engineering critical to solving the world’s environmental challenges. Land contamination and rehabilitation, energy, hydrogeology, wastewater treatment, and sustainable cities are strong focus areas.
As an environmental engineering student, you’ll learn engineering concepts and technical skills in order to:
preserve the environment
minimise water, soil and air pollution
assess the environmental impact of engineering projects
develop remediation measures for environmental degradation
deliver sustainable solutions through engineering processes
Elective subjects such as the China Environmental Challenges Study Tour or the Sustainable Cities for the Future France Study Tour will provide you with the opportunity to gain a global perspective of the world’s environmental challenges and the role engineers can play in solving them.
You’ll graduate with the skills and knowledge to be able to conserve water resources, supply safe drinking water in challenging contexts, undertake rehabilitation of contaminated land and groundwater, design systems to sustainably manage wastes and reduce the environmental footprint in urban and rural communities and prepare environmental impact studies for major infrastructure projects.
You’ll also have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design and build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge – a humanitarian-focused course offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.
Career
Environmental engineering offers you diverse career options. You’ll have a real opportunity to make a significant difference to the world by introducing sustainable practices to preserve the environment, remediating environmental disasters, and preparing the community for adverse effects of climate change.
You’ll find employment opportunities in:
environmental consultancies
government departments and regulatory bodies
private businesses
contaminated land industries
mining
water treatment environmental remediation
Please note: From 2023, the BH080 plan is only available to RMIT students articulating from an approved pathway program. All other applicants should apply for the BH080P23 plan.
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION
Since its establishment in 1887, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University (RMIT) has been meeting the needs of the community surrounding it. Originally a Working Men’s College, RMIT showed its flexibility during World War Two, training over 20,000 servicemen in communications to help with the war effort.Now, it is a true pioneer in international education, championing cross-border study opportunities with campuses in various countries. Granted formal university status in 1992, RMIT is ranked 21st in the world for universities that are less than 50 years old.RMIT is the largest higher education institution in Australia, currently with more than 82,000 students. With nearly 20% of those students coming from overseas, it is a university that truly welcomes diversity and is a melting pot of different cultures. RMIT has three campuses in Vietnam, a European hub in Barcelona, an office in Indonesia, and partners with 200+ institutions in 42 countries to provide study opportunities worldwide.
