The discussion paper is intended to give guidance to policy makers and other stakeholders in planning and delivering Australia’s Urban Transport Systems (UTS). The scope includes changes to the transport systems themselves and associated investment and decision-making processes.

A guide to engineering competency in the construction sector. Developed by Engineers Australia and the Australian Constructors Association. 

Engineers Australia recognises the scale and urgency of the challenges presented by climate change, the disruptions it causes, and the pivotal role of engineering in enabling a socially just transition to a sustainable society.

Overseas-born engineers make up over 58 per cent of Australia’s engineering workforce but are significantly more likely than their Australian-born counterparts to be unemployed. To find out why and identify how to overcome the barriers to employment these engineers face, Engineers Australia commissioned research to identify potential barriers to employment.

This guide covers contract terms, professional indemnity insurance and the Design and Building Practitioners Act 2020 (NSW). 

This document has been produced with an aim to improve aviation in Australia and is intended to inform discussions contributing to Australia’s aviation economy, which is essential for communities, industries, businesses, and tourism. The focus of the paper is on the airport, from the air to the land side, including transport infrastructure planning and engineering, today and in the future.

In this submission, Engineers Australia demonstrates that demand for engineers in Australia will always outstrip supply from domestic entry level graduates. A skilled migration program will, therefore, always be needed.

Despite considerable effort, there is still much to be done to improve girls’ participation in STEM education and careers. The Engineering for Australia Taskforce has appreciated the need to act based on four issues they have identified. This paper reviews the international research literature that not only focuses on barriers to girls’ participation in engineering, but more importantly focuses on the value of interventions to improve diverse participation in engineering.

This discussion paper is intended to inform discussion to reduce the massive social and economic impact of road crashes.

This paper is intended to inform discussion on the potential role of MaaS in improving transport system efficiency and creating a seamless travel experience.

This discussion paper provides insights and recommendations for the planning and integration of Connected Vehicles (CV), Automated Vehicles (AV) and Connected Automated Vehicles (CAV) in our transport systems and services.

This discussion paper is intended to guide the benchmarking of transport engineering streams in Civil Engineering Bachelor degree programs in Australia.

This guide has been developed to support the engineering profession in respectfully acknowledging country and Indigenous communities in a meaningful way. It encourages all to share the remarkable story of Indigenous engineering – both the very long lineage of Indigenous knowledge and engineering, along with the contribution of contemporary Indigenous engineers.

This document is intended to inform discussion on the benefits of active transport in managing travel demand and addressing environmental and health challenges.

The guide provides a fire risk assessment methodology for suitably qualified and competent professionals to determine the potential hazard of fire spread via the facade of existing buildings. It offers a pathway to deliver a risk assessment appropriate to the situation being assessed and enables a level of safety to be defined, from which the assessment goals can be set and agreed with building stakeholders.

This paper is intended to inform discussion on the potential role of road pricing in managing travel demand and addressing revenue challenges, recognising implementation and social equity considerations.

This report analyses and presents statistics describing the characteristics and size of Australia’s engineering profession over the period 2006 to 2016. It is the first report covering the three population censuses over the boom and bust cycle during these years.
