The Bachelor of Engineering Honours (Electrical) will develop your ability to design and build the systems and machines that generate, transmit, measure, control and use electrical energy. It will position you to tackle the world's biggest challenges in health, education and the environment. You will learn from industry-leading professionals how electrical energy is produced and used in homes, the community and in industry. Throughout your studies you will develop a foundational knowledge of electrical circuits, electronics and computer systems, signals and communications, power systems, control, energy systems and management. During this four-year degree you will gain core skills in physics, mathematics, computer science and basic electrical engineering principles, before specialising in a variety of fields within the discipline, such as biomedical engineering, energy engineering and automatic control. In your third and fourth years, you can take electives to add breadth and depth to your studies. As part of your degree you will undertake the award-winning Professional Engagement Program enabling you to change your approach to learning through self-reflection and extra-curricular activities throughout your degree.
Our Computer Engineering specialisation explores the areas of advanced computer systems, computer networking, and software engineering, with further opportunities to undertake a wide range of other related topics including studies in artificial intelligence and integrated circuit design. This specialisation builds on foundations in physics, mathematics, computer science and basic electrical engineering principles and also offers computer-based tutorials.
As a graduate of our Computer Engineering specialisation, you will be able to take advantage of the strong demand for computer engineers in industry. You may be able to pursue a career in embedded microprocessor systems, digital control systems, image processing, digital signal processing, tracking and surveillance, measurement and sensing, data processing systems, software engineering, biomedical engineering and power systems.
