Aim

The program aims to provide a broad and fundamental understanding of the theory and practice of the disciplines of engineering and business management. It prepares graduates for careers in many sectors of the economy including accounting, computing, electronics and communications, networking communications, transport, manufacturing and defence industries and in government agencies with relevant skills in business management. It also provides a professional level of education for potential and current managers.

Content & Structure

The program requires 180 units of study which consist of 117 units for the engineering degree and 63 units for the management degree. Within the program, there is a professional engineering practice stream of 5 courses (22.5 units), including the project, which address the area of management within the engineering context.

The courses in the program are structured as follows:

22 engineering courses including, mathematics, science, computing and technical engineering subjects;
5 engineering courses (including project) that have a strong focus on management in the engineering context;
13 generic management courses;

Rules & notes

Rules

1. Students are not permitted to enrol directly into Project 1H and 2H. They will be transferred into these once they have met the criteria for entry to the degree with honours.

2. In the "Electronics and Communications" stream, and for a coherent program, students are expected to follow either one of the two sequences below: a. Electronics: VLSI Design G, Electronic Filters and Amplifiers, and Microengineering Technology. b. Communications: Data structures, Modern Communications, and Telecommunications Networks.

Notes

1. Provided that course prerequisites are still met, and with the approval of the Program Director, students in the fourth and fifth years of their programs may enrol in courses from either of those years of the program. In making these choices, students should ensure that there are no adverse timetable implications.

2. It is a requirement of Engineers Australia that students complete a minimum period of 12 weeks of industrial experience in a relevant industry prior to graduation. Assessment in the course Industrial Experience will remain incomplete until the student submits a written report and receives a pass.

3. If required for overseas professional accreditation purposes, students may elect to graduate with alternative nomenclature, e.g. Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic Engineering).
