Organisation profile
The Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering has a unique combination of multi-disciplinary expertise including civil, environmental, chemical, mechanical and electrical engineering plus materials science, geoscience, physics, chemistry and
microbiology.
Its world-class research portfolio includes leadership of international and multi-institutional research consortia in close collaboration with both industry and government.
The Department's researchers work across three main interdisciplinary centres:-
• Ground Engineering & Energy Geoscience
• Intelligent Infrastructure
• Water, Environment, Sustainability & Public Health
Centre for Ground Engineering & Energy Geoscience
Our researchers have expertise in a range of different disciplines, including:
-ground barrier technologies
-experimental geomechanics
-geotechnical engineering
-geophysics
-site investigation
-structural geology
-hydrogeology
-constitutive & numerical modelling of geomaterials
Centre for Intelligent Infrastructure
We are committed to transforming traditional structural engineering through cross-disciplinary research, recognising and transposing the recent radical innovations in material science, communication and sensor technology.
Our expertise includes:
-intelligent infrastructure & artificial intelligence

Centre for Water, Environment, Sustainability & Public Health
We undertake fundamental and applied research to provide novel solutions to some of the most pressing environmental challenges, working both locally and internationally.
Our expertise includes:
-water
-public & environmental health
-soil contamination, restoration & remediation
-environmental assessment
-waste, energy & the circular economy
-international development
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
