3. New Zealand study abroad engineering majors and recommended institutions
I. Civil engineering
Civil engineering is the general name of science and technology for building various engineering facilities. It not only refers to the application of materials, equipment and technical activities such as survey, design, construction and maintenance, but also refers to the object of engineering construction. In recent years, the number of engineers needed by the market is four times that of engineering students who graduate every year. Therefore, students have a good choice whether to choose foreign development or return to China in the future.
Recommended by institutions: Canterbury University, University of Auckland, UNITEC Institute of Technology.
Second, mechanical engineering
