Program Description

This program is not available to commencing students. Details below are provided for the reference of continuing students only.
Prospective students should refer instead to the new program, Master of Engineering Science - 8538.

Master of Engineering Science candidates are required to complete a program totalling 48 units of credit which may include a 12 unit of credit project. Courses are presented off-campus in external mode delivery. Courses presented in 3 day short course mode are also available to external students. Subject to approval, candidates may undertake some courses from other schools in the faculty, in other faculties or at other universities.

Students may enrol in a particular academic plan or specialisation. Usually a student undertakes a minimum of 30 units of credit from a list of prescribed courses for the particular plan or specialisation and a maximum of 18 units of credit from other postgraduate courses available within the School. The Postgraduate Coursework Coordinator may approve variations to the above in special circumstances and must approve elective courses taken outside the School.

It should be noted that some candidates who have partially completed the requirements for Graduate Diploma might be considered for upgrading to the relevant Masters program with advanced standing. Further enquiries should be made at the School Office.

Note that not all courses are offered each year and the School Office should be consulted for details of the timetable for any particular year. Consequently not all academic plans are available on a full-time basis.
