Aim

The Graduate Diploma aims to provide graduates with advanced learning in the component functionality and integration of intelligent autonomous systems. In addition it provides an opportunity for students to develop an understanding of engineering research methods.The proposed program will provide students with opportunities as development engineers, managers, acquisition specialists, and capability planners.

Content & Structure

The graduate Diploma covers areas of engineering and technology that focus on the functional elements of an autonomous system, including areas such as sensing and sensor systems, advanced control, actuation and automation, advanced mechatronic systems, communications, and test & evaluation. Students also develop engineering research method skills
