Programs and courses

Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Engineering)

The program emphasises the development of your electronics and computer engineering and design skills through continual laboratory access. Its focus on work integrated learning includes off-campus industry placement in your final year, ensuring that you will graduate fully prepared for a challenging career in industry, and research and development enterprises.

Bachelor of Engineering (advanced with honours)

If you are looking for 'something extra' in your engineering degree, this advanced studies program is for you. Only a select number of students of outstanding ability will have the opportunity to undertake the program. You will be required to complete all the requirements of the Bachelor of Engineering and will be assigned specialist project work throughout the degree. This additional work, performed under the supervision of academic staff, is designed to ensure that you develop exceptional understanding in a major area of your choosing.

Bachelor of Engineering Technology

This program will enable you to develop the skills to assist as an engineering technologist and advise in planning, designing, operating and maintaining civil, coastal, electronic, and environmental engineering works. Electronic and Computer Engineering students will develop the skills in hardware and software design and implementation you’ll need to work in leading-edge, high-technology fields, including communications, microelectronics, computer systems, biomedical engineering, and control systems (robotics).

Bachelor of Engineering/Bachelor of Information Technology

Engineering is an information-intensive industry. Information is an essential resource for major tasks such as design, planning, control, reporting and decision making. With project complexity increasing, the need for effectively gathering, compiling, controlling and integrating information has become much greater. This program provides a comprehensive, industry-focused qualification that equips you with the knowledge and skills to practise as a professional engineer and/or information technologist, through studies focused on artificial intelligence, computing science, information systems or software engineering. You will also spend a semester working off-campus in a professional engineering organisation to complete your design projects.

Bachelor of Engineering /Bachelor of Science

You will graduate with an in-depth understanding of current knowledge in both a specialised area of engineering and a choice of scientific disciplines. The program provides you with a unique opportunity to undertake industry training for one semester through the Industrial Affiliates Program, and a further opportunity to participate in the Overseas industrial Experience Program, which enables you to undertake 12 weeks work experience in an overseas country. You are required to choose one specialised area within the Engineering component of your double degree program. Electronic and computer engineering studies are combined with a major in Applied Mathematics or Physics from the Bachelor of Science program. Through your engineering studies you will develop the hardware and software design and implementation skills necessary to gain employment in leading-edge, high-technology fields including communications, microelectronics, computer systems, biomedical engineering, and control systems (robotics).

Master of Engineering

This discipline enables graduates of electrical, electronic, computer systems or communication engineering to develop their knowledge to an advanced level in both general professional and technical areas. In particular, specialist courses in VLSI design (including chip fabrication), MEMs, digital signal processing, semiconductor devices, communications systems and networks, biomedical applications, computer systems and control systems are available.

Master of Engineering with Advanced Studies

This degree has been designed to meet the needs of the engineering profession. This program allows graduate engineers to build on, and update their knowledge, and learn in additional areas to those taken in their undergraduate degree. Degree graduates will be positioned to seek professional employment, advance their career, and assume a leadership role within their engineering discipline. This program will have the option to allow students to complete the Masters requirements and undertake a further 40CP Dissertation to graduate with the award of the Masters with Advanced Studies. The Advanced Studies is for students wishing to undertake research or proceed to a research higher degree.
