Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)/Bachelor of Surveying

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) component of this double degree is fully accredited with Engineers Australia at the level of Professional Engineer, and graduates are recognised internationally through the Washington Accord. The degree is also recognised by the Board of Surveying and Spatial Information of New South Wales as meeting the requirements for entry as a candidate to become a Registered Surveyor, and by the Institution of Surveyors, New South Wales, the Spatial Sciences Institute and Engineers Australia, for admission as corporate members.

Yes. Part of the degree involves applying your skills through 60 days of approved industrial training in Australia or overseas. Additionally, part of the Surveying component includes a one-week off-campus survey camp where you take part in comprehensive survey projects involving control survey design and implementation, detail surveys, contour surveys, the setting-out of a rural road, and other selected projects including cadastral surveys, remote sensing, digital photogrammetric mapping, and GIS system design.

In your fourth year, you can choose from over 40 discipline electives to explore your interests and future career aspirations. Electives include Sustainability in Construction, Structural Dynamics, Traffic Engineering, Planning Sustainable Infrastructure, Coastal Engineering, Humanitarian Engineering, and Reinforced Concrete Design. Other electives available include Ecology, Sustainability and Environmental Science, Computer Science Fundamentals, Grand Challenges for Engineering, Engineering Infrastructure Systems, Fundamentals of Geology, and Sustainable Energy.

For domestic students, the 2026 indicative first year full fee is $8,000 and the indicative full fee to complete the degree is $47,500. For international students, the 2026 indicative first year full fee is $62,000 and the indicative full fee to complete the degree is $337,000.

Students have access to state-of-the-art civil engineering facilities including the Water Research Laboratory, Infrastructure Laboratory, Heavy Structures Laboratory, and the Mark Wainwright Analytical Centre. For the Surveying component, students have access to the Surveying and Geospatial Engineering Laboratory (SAGE Lab), a central space for teaching and research in surveying and geospatial engineering, as well as the Satellite Navigation and Positioning Laboratory (SNAP Lab), which has over 20 years of research experience in wireless, ground-based and satellite-based positioning technology and applications.
