COURSE DESCRIPTION
Designed for students interested in pursuing a career in the renewable energy or electrical power industry.
This specialisation is intended to provide graduates with strong competencies in the fundamental electrical engineering discipline areas with a complementary focus on the utilisation, generation, management and design of renewable energy resources. The course provides broad coverage across a range of core electrical power subjects, leading to more in-depth studies relating to renewable energy systems. As with all of the School’s engineering programs, the Electrical and Renewable Energy program focuses on the development of knowledge and skills relevant to professional engineering practice and along with a sound theoretical base, includes strong elements of practical problem solving, team work and project development. As a result, as well as having multiple technical and transferable skill competencies, graduates will gain strong analytical skills, and have the ability to lead complex projects.
Learning Outcomes
Reflect critically on a complex body of technical and theoretical Engineering knowledge, research principles and methods with advanced knowledge in electrical and renewable energy professional practice.
Apply cognitive, technical and creative skills to investigate, evaluate and synthesise complex ideas, concepts and theories in authentic engineering situations.
Apply high level communication and collaboration skills in a professional engineering context.
Use high level self-management skills to initiate, plan and execute a substantial electrical and renewable energy engineering project.
Career Opportunities
Employment opportunities
Electrical and Renewable Energy Engineers have a wide range of employment opportunities across the energy generation, conversion, distribution and management sectors, including power utilities, the mining industry, larger manufacturing businesses as well as the domestic markets where renewable energy systems are now quite common.
Possible future job titles
Electrical Engineer, Power Systems Engineer, Renewable Energy Engineer
