The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Electrical and Mechatronic) uses an industry focused, project-based teaching and learning approach to develop professional electrical engineers who are well prepared to work in diverse, interdisciplinary teams to solve complex problems in a socially and culturally appropriate manner.
Content & Structure
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Electrical and Mechatornic) 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. In third year students concentrate on electrical power and mechatronic systems, as well as taking a set of common courses in mathematics, systems engineering, communications, control systems, and digital electronics. The program provides students with the opportunity to integrate these studies into the development of mechatronic systems in areas such as autonomous systems, robotics and industrial automation. An integrating project course is taken in the second half of the third year, which enables students to synthesise and apply the skills and knowledge accumulated throughout the program. Further specialist courses are offered in the final year. There is an emphasis throughout the program on preparing students for professional engineering practice and on the application of knowledge to practical engineering problems. The degree develops professional engineering skills and research abilities in a major final year group project, spanning the full duration of the final year.
1. It is a requirement of Engineers Australia that students achieve at least 12 weeks exposure to professional practice during their degree, preferably through 12 weeks of industrial experience in a relevant industry prior to graduation. Assessment in the industrial experience course will remain incomplete until the student completes their portfolio and receives a pass.
Notes
1. The University elective is a course from any school or program within the University of South Australia that is freely chosen by students, subject to pre-requisite requirements and availability.
