A Hydraulic Engineer designs and develops systems that manage water and other fluids. You might work on projects involving water treatment, flood control, or hydraulic machinery. Hydraulic Engineers focus on ensuring the efficient and safe movement of fluids within various infrastructures. You’ll create detailed plans and models to optimise fluid flow and system performance while complying with regulatory standards and safety requirements.
Hydraulic Engineers play a crucial role in maintaining and improving water resources and infrastructure. You’ll need to be analytical and detail-oriented, with strong problem-solving skills. You’ll collaborate with other engineers and stakeholders to address complex challenges and implement effective solutions.
There are 2 courses available for people who want to become a Hydraulic Engineer.
Possible job outcomes:
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Civil and Environmental Engineering) combines civil engineering studies with a keen emphasis on environmental management. It equips students to handle projects that might impact land, water, and air quality, ensuring potential environmental repercussions are identified and mitigated. This course instils a profound understanding of project sustainability and its environmental consequences, both short and long-term. Offering a robust theoretical foundation, the curriculum also fosters practical problem-solving, teamwork, and project development, preparing graduates to lead intricate projects with analytical precision..
Average duration: 4 years.
Fluid power industry is one of the fastest growing engineering sectors today. The Graduate Certificate in Fluid Power Engineering covers knowledge and skills needed to work with process operations and fluid power systems. You will gain an in-depth understanding of industrial hydraulic and pneumatic systems, including design optimization, operations, troubleshooting and maintenance. You will also understand, analyze and evaluate application of various pumps, compressors, turbines and drives used in oil & gas, mining, minerals processing industries. The learning outcomes of the course are designed to equip the students with professional engineering skills and knowledge to formulate the models necessary to study, analyse, and design process flow diagrams, piping and instrumentation diagrams and fluid systems through the application of these concepts, and to develop the problem-solving skills essential to good engineering practice of fluid dynamics in practical real-world application..
Average duration: 6 months.
