Construction engineering and management, project management and asset management skills are vital to building and maintaining the infrastructure we need to live in cities and towns in the 21st century. Infrastructure projects, such as bridges, buildings, roads, railways, wharves, mine and natural resource facilities, dams and waste treatment plants, progress through feasibility, design, construction, commissioning and handover phases.

Construction engineering is about organising and coordinating the people, equipment, and materials so that the construction work is done efficiently, safely and in an environmentally sensitive and sustainable way.
