Equip yourself with specialist knowledge and technical skills in urban water engineering to meet challenges in a changing world.
The Master of Urban Water Engineering (Professional) provides you with the integrated knowledge and skills required to grasp the whole urban water cycle and the linkages between its different aspects.
The trend towards urbanisation and associated water stress in modern cities is strengthening, and as the urban centres become more densely populated this will not be reversed in the foreseeable future. Globally, there is a shortage of engineers with expertise in all aspects of the urban water cycle and their reciprocal influence and integration.
To be eligible for entry, you'll need:
Relevant disciplines include chemical engineering, civil engineering, environmental engineering, groundwater science and engineering, hydrology and water resources engineering, hydropower engineering, water conservancy engineering, water science and engineering, and water supply and drainage (science) engineering.
If your bachelor's degree in engineering was not awarded in these disciplines, you must have successfully completed all of the following discipline content in your tertiary studies:
