Master of Professional Engineering (Electrical & Electronic Engineering)

About

Overview

If you want to become a professional Electrical and Electronic Engineer and have a 3-year Australian engineering degree (or recognised equivalent international degree) but no work experience, the UniSQ's Master of Professional Engineering (Electrical and Electronic Engineering) will provide a pathway.
Throughout the degree there is an emphasis on practical experience with hands-on laboratory sessions and 60 days industry experience, preparing you thoroughly for the engineering profession.
You will also complete a research project and dissertation applying all your formal knowledge to a real world problem. Whether this is the exploration of signalling devices for road and rail or the most efficient transmission of power, renewable energy or energy storage, your project will provide insight to the profession of an Electrical and Electronic Engineer.
The research project and dissertation can also be a stepping stone to further higher degrees, such as PhD.
