HED001 Associate Degree in Civil Engineering is accredited by Engineers Australia at the level of Engineering
Associate. This professionally-accredited program is also recognised in Canada, Ireland, Korea, New Zealand,
South Africa, United Kingdom and the United States of America through Dublin Accord, greatly improving the
global mobility of graduates and offering them the opportunity of a truly international career.
Many graduates from the Associate Degree in Civil Engineering program continue with their engineering bachelor’s
degree at universities like Queensland University of Technology (QUT), CQ University and the University of
Southern Queensland (USQ). TAFE Queensland, Brisbane has negotiated pathways with these universities,
providing our graduates with credit exemptions (at least 1.5 years) when they enrol in engineering bachelor degrees
at these universities.
A qualification in civil engineering will help you shape the future of Australia’s infrastructure.
