COURSE CURRICULUM

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Computer Engineering is structured to provide a progressive learning experience that develops strong foundations in mathematics, science, computing, and engineering design. In the first year, students typically study two introductory Mathematics courses, an introductory Physics course, and an introductory Computing course, along with a course related to their chosen specialisation. All students also complete ENGG1000 “Introduction to Engineering Design and Innovation,” where they learn core engineering thinking skills and develop solutions under real-world constraints such as limited time, budget, and resources. In the second year, students undertake courses from their selected specialisation along with core subjects that build fundamental knowledge in computer engineering. In the third and fourth years, students further develop their expertise through a combination of advanced core and elective courses, deepening their understanding of both hardware and software systems. Throughout the degree, students complete two General Education electives, which broaden their academic perspective and strengthen cross-disciplinary thinking, adaptability, and critical analysis skills. The program also includes 60 days of Engineering Professional Practice, providing essential industry experience before graduation. Graduates are prepared for diverse career pathways beyond traditional IT roles, including telecommunications, software development, research and development, finance, government and defence, and manufacturing, reflecting the wide applicability of computer engineering skills across industries.
