Civil engineering is one of the favorite majors of many China engineering students who are going to apply for studying in Australia. So which Australian universities have advantages in civil engineering? Let me give you a brief introduction. The infrastructure of modern society, such as dams, bridges, pipelines, roads and buildings, are all designed and manufactured by civil engineers, who are responsible for designing and managing our natural gas and drinking water, urban drainage systems, ports, airports and railways. Civil engineers also work in the field of environment, such as evaluating the impact of large-scale projects on the environment and how to collect and treat municipal and industrial wastes, pollution control, environmental control and resource protection and management.

Civil engineers generally start with the architect's design drawings and consider whether the selected materials can support the height or design of a specific building. At the same time, they will also consider what impact the organization will have on the surrounding environment. Civil engineers are mainly responsible for how to build a safe, economical and harmonious building with the surrounding environment. Civil engineers can be divided into main civil engineers, engineering civil engineers, structural engineers, transportation engineers or water supply and drainage system engineers.

According to the survey of Australian University Graduates' Career Development Committee, engineering graduates are more likely to find jobs and earn higher salaries than students majoring in law, pharmacy, chemistry, physics, geography, veterinary medicine, accounting, economics and architecture.

For construction projects, the average starting salary of graduates can usually reach about 35,000 to 40,000 Australian dollars, which is one level higher than the accounting of 30,000 to 35,000 Australian dollars. But if you choose mining engineering, the income may be more considerable, generally 50 thousand? About 90 thousand Australian dollars. At present, the professional evaluation scores of civil engineers and engineering technicians are both 60 points. The advantage of high employment rate after graduation and easy migration is the highlight of attracting outstanding students.
