COURSE CURRICULUM

The Master of Professional Engineering (Accelerated) (Electrical Engineering) offers a flexible and industry-focused study structure designed to prepare graduates for advanced professional practice in electrical and telecommunications engineering. Students can choose to specialise in Telecommunications Engineering, Power Engineering, Internet of Things, or Intelligent Information Engineering, allowing them to tailor their studies to specific career goals and industry demands. All students complete a combination of professional engineering units, management electives, and project or research-based learning units, ensuring they develop both technical expertise and essential workplace skills such as leadership, communication, and project management. Those who choose a specialisation undertake a sequence of core units that provide in-depth knowledge in their chosen field, supported by specialised electives that broaden technical understanding and practical application. Students who prefer a more general pathway complete core electrical engineering units alongside a range of electives, enabling a broader exploration of the discipline. Across all pathways, the program emphasises real-world problem-solving, innovation, and applied engineering practice through project work and research integration. This structure ensures graduates are well prepared to address complex engineering challenges in areas such as energy systems, telecommunications networks, smart technologies, and digital infrastructure, making them highly competitive in both Australian and global engineering industries.
