Access to clean water and safe sanitation is fundamental to public health and development, and the engineers who design these systems shape the wellbeing of entire communities. This program equips civil and environmental engineers to design water supply and sanitation systems — from sources and treatment through to distribution, collection, and disposal — to recognised engineering standards.
With urbanisation and climate pressures intensifying demand for resilient water and sanitation infrastructure, skilled engineers in this field are in strong and lasting demand. This course combines core design principles with practical application and introduces emerging trends in smart water management, reuse, and decentralised sanitation.
