Civil Engineer
Structures, Transport and Geotechnical. Master of Engineering (Civil) at CQUniversity, Melbourne.
Civil engineer with a Bachelor's from Pulchowk Campus, now completing a Master of Engineering (Civil) in Melbourne.
I have done road survey, design and cost estimation, and taught senior-secondary mathematics. I am looking for a civil engineering role where I can apply design and teamwork skills.
