The Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental Engineering) (Honours) at RMIT University in Melbourne prepares students to address environmental challenges through a strong technical foundation in water, soil, air and waste management. Over four years, students learn both theoretical principles and practical methods essential for tackling environmental issues in Australia and globally, with content that covers pollution control, resource recovery, environmental impact assessment, and sustainable infrastructure design.
Australian engineering degrees are structured around semesters, with students completing individual units of study that accumulate credit points contributing towards graduation. This honours-level course includes a capstone project in the fourth year, often involving real-world environmental engineering challenges, enabling students to work closely with industry partners or research projects. Many students participate in work-integrated learning (WIL) placements, giving them experience with local councils, consulting firms, utilities or government agencies involved in environmental management or site remediation.
Graduates develop technical skills in environmental monitoring, modelling, risk analysis, and eco-design, as well as communication, teamwork and project management abilities sought after by employers. The course suits those interested in science and engineering who want to make a difference in how society interacts with natural systems. It is recommended for those who want to work across water, waste, air quality, sustainable resources, or contaminated site management. English language entry requirements apply, and applicants should confirm specific details on the official page.
Graduates are in demand within Australia's infrastructure, water, mining, construction and government sectors. This degree may help meet requirements for professional registration. International students may be eligible for the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) and can work up to 48 hours per fortnight alongside studies.
It typically takes 4 years, with intakes in Semester 1 (Feb/Mar), Semester 2 (Jul).
Tuition is around A$203,520 total. Fees change yearly, confirm with an advisor.
