ENGRG4106 Intelligent Technologies for Sustainable Construction

This unit is designed to equip students with the essential knowledge and skills required for a career as a construction engineer. It covers key topics critical to the construction industry, including construction methods, intelligent construction, digital modelling, life cycle analysis, and sustainable construction principles, highlighting emerging trends and technologies that are shaping the industry's future. By the end of the unit, students will have developed a solid foundation in digital construction technology and building information modelling, preparing them to manage and contribute to diverse sustainable construction practices. The concepts introduced through lectures, guest lectures and tutorials are reinforced through practical Building Information Modelling (BIM) activities, enabling students to develop and apply essential BIM skills. The BIM Live Build Challenge is a compulsory individual modelling assessment for all students, and attendance is required. For online-enrolled students, the assessment will be conducted in block mode to provide an equivalent hands-on learning and assessment experience.

Commonwealth supported place (CSP)

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).

2027 contribution amount* $1,235
2027 grandfathered contribution amount^ $1,235

^ If you are a continuing student who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Psychology and Social Work bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree. Find our more about domestic tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule.

International full fee–paying places

International tuition fees are course-based annual fees and the unit fee you pay will vary according to the degree you are studying. Find out more about international tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule.
