The objective of this program is to provide graduates with engineering skills at a level between the Bachelor and Masters by Research degree levels.
A degree equivalent to an Australian four-year Bachelor of Engineering in Computer, Electrical, Electronics or Telecommunications Engineering.
Students are required to undertake Option A or B, worth 48 credit points, chosen from one of the following programs:
The structure for each program and the complete list of subjects available under the Master of Engineering Studies is presented below. In any given year, the subjects presented under the individual programs that follow may be replaced by equivalent subjects from this list.
Graduates with an interest in mechatronics are invited to take specialised subjects from the Automation and Power Engineering program.
