Master of Civil Engineering
Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia
About this program
Monash's Master of Civil Engineering responds to growing demand for civil engineers with broad awareness of new technology in city infrastructure, covering computational analysis, information management, design and planning as applied to real infrastructure problems rather than purely theoretical civil engineering content. The course is also offered as an international double master's program with Southeast University, letting eligible students complete both the Monash qualification and a second degree from the partner institution. It suits civil engineering graduates who want deeper specialist skills in evaluating and solving complex modern infrastructure problems, particularly those with an interest in newer computational and data-driven approaches to civil engineering rather than traditional structural design alone, and the Southeast University pathway gives students genuine international study experience alongside their Australian qualification.
