Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering - 52950WA

TAFE International Western Australia

Type of institution: TAFE Institute
Level: Vocational Education and Training (VET)
CRICOS: 00020G

This qualification covers the knowledge and competencies required by civil andstructural engineering paraprofessionals and engineering associates working acrossthe construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, and resource sectors. It is designedfor individuals involved in the planning, design, analysis, documentation, projectcoordination, and technical management of civil and structural engineering systemswithin residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure environments.Graduates of the Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering will developadvanced technical knowledge and practical skills required to apply engineeringprinciples, undertake engineering design activities, analyse structural and civilsystems, and contribute to the delivery of safe, efficient, and sustainable engineeringsolutions. Graduates will be able to apply specialised engineering methods, tools,and technologies to solve broadly defined engineering problems and supportengineering decision-making processes within a range of engineering contexts.The program equips graduates with competencies in structural analysis and design,reinforced concrete and steel detailing, civil infrastructure design, surveying,construction principles, geotechnical engineering, fluid mechanics, engineeringmathematics, computer-aided drafting (CAD), 3D modelling, and BuildingInformation Modelling (BIM). Graduates will also develop skills in engineeringcommunication, project coordination, technical documentation, teamwork, andprofessional engineering practice.The inclusion of advanced engineering design units, engineering softwareapplications, and project-based learning ensures graduates gain industry-relevantand practical expertise aligned with current engineering practices and technologies.The course also develops graduates’ ability to interpret engineering standards,evaluate engineering solutions, and apply judgement in technical and operationalengineering activities.The Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering enhances graduates’employment opportunities and provides a pathway for further professionaldevelopment and higher-level engineering studies. It prepares graduates for rolesinvolving engineering design support, drafting, and detailing, project coordination,technical supervision, infrastructure development, and engineering operationsacross a broad range of industries.Graduates may find employment as engineering associates, civil and structuralengineering drafters, structural detailing technicians, design technicians, sitecoordinators, project support officers, CAD/BIM technicians, technical officers,construction support personnel, or paraprofessional engineering staff withinengineering consultancies, construction companies, infrastructure providers,government agencies, mining and resource organisations, and related sectors inboth the public and private domains.
