COURSE CURRICULUM

For students admitted at entry level 2, the Master of Electrical Engineering requires completion of 96 credit points across Core specialist studies, Elective specialist studies, Research studies, and Professional practice. The Core specialist studies (48 credit points) develop advanced expertise in electrical engineering, including areas such as signal processing, electronic circuit design, electromagnetism, antennas, real-time systems, multimedia communications, and smart grid technologies. This component builds strong technical depth and prepares students for complex engineering practice in modern technology-driven industries. Electrical engineering electives (24 credit points) allow students to tailor their studies to specific interests and career goals, enabling deeper engagement with specialised areas of the discipline. Research studies (18 credit points) focus on building analytical and research capability through three core units: ENG5001 Advanced Data Analytics for Engineers, ENG5005 Research Methods, and ENG5006 Research Practice. These units equip students with skills in data analysis, research design, and evidence-based engineering problem solving. The Professional practice component (6 credit points) supports industry readiness and professional development through ENG5100 Professional Engineer in Organisation and Society, along with ENG0003 Professional Engineering Continuous Professional Development, which encourages ongoing learning and professional growth. Overall, the 96-credit-point structure integrates technical knowledge, research skills, and professional practice to prepare graduates for advanced roles in electrical engineering and related industries.
