The Graduate Certificate in Engineering is designed to train and enhance professional practice, advance technical and specialist skills, and provide a chance to apply theory with applied projects. This degree provides a foundation for the more intensive theoretical and practical work of the graduate diploma.
The graduate certificate consists of four subjects. You will study engineering research methods and then choose three technical subjects in one of the following specialisations:
- Civil, mining, and environmental engineering
- Electrical, computer, and telecommunications
- Mechanical, materials, and mechatronic
Upon successful completion of the Graduate Certificate in Engineering, you may seek to continue your studies in the Master of Engineering, which is professionally accredited by Engineers Australia.
See the course handbook for more information.
