Aim

The Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic) program aims to prepare students for a professional career in engineering in the field of information technology with particular emphasis on electronic, electrical, and telecommunication based systems.

Content & Structure

The Bachelor of Engineering requires completion of courses totalling 144 units. This comprises a near common two year foundation program of mathematics, science, computing and electrical and electronic engineering principles.Each specialisation commences in the third year of study, where students concentrate on their chosen application area, as well as undertaking a set of common courses in mathematics, systems engineering, professional engineering practice, computer communications, real-time systems and control. Further specialist courses are offered in the final year. The degree inculcates professional engineering skills in a major final year group project, spanning both the First Half and Second Half of the final year.

The 3 streams of the Bachelor of Engineering degree program for Singapore delivery are defined in the Program Schedules that follow.

Rules & notes

Notes

1. The University of South Australia encourages graduates to acquire broad concepts, knowledge and skills beyond those gained through their specialist professional study. This is achieved through the requirement that all students complete at least one elective as part of their undergraduate program of study.

2. All students must complete a period of industrial experience in a relevant industry prior to graduation. This program requires a minimum of 12 weeks of industrial experience in a relevant industry, which would normally be obtained from the second year of the program onwards. Assessment in the course Practical Industrial Experience Reports will remain incomplete until the student submits a written report and receives a pass.

3. Students undertaking the program in Singapore are required to complete a 2-week workshop in Adelaide, prior to the commencement of their Electrical and Information Engineering Project work.
