Stream Outline
The stream provides a solid postgraduate program for electrical engineers wishing to upgrade their skills or further their knowledge.
Entry requirements
In order to be admitted to the stream, a student would be expected to hold a Bachelor of Engineering with at least Honours II/2 (or equivalent) in a relevant discipline or hold a Graduate Certificate of Engineering with at least a credit average or an equivalent qualification from a recognised university or tertiary institution in order to be admitted to the program. Relevant disciplines considered for entry include electrical or telecommunications engineering, as well as computer engineering where a sound foundation in telecommunications is provided.
Those without such a qualification are required to argue their prior learning is equivalent to this qualification. For example, a 3- or 4-year Bachelor of Engineering or Science combined with relevant discipline experience may be recognised. For the Telecommunications-related stream, this experience could be for example a sustained design, testing or commissioning role in a multi-year technical project, or a multi-year sustained technical consulting role.
