Description


Pre-requisite: CVEN1701 OR School Consent
The course enables environmental engineers to analyse and design sustainable infrastructure to support the needs of regional economies and populations. It builds on and applies the concepts learned in introductory tools, water and transport courses in Stages 1 to 3 of the program. It provides a regional planning context to the planning and design of infrastructure in the areas of water and waste management, transport services, energy supply and distribution; and provides a series of case studies to illustrate the principles of sustainable infrastructure design.
