COURSE DESCRIPTION

Summary

Mechatronics and automation engineering centres around the fusion of mechanical engineering, electronics, computer science and control systems. The career prospects for graduates in this field are robust – Australian engineering job vacancies have hit a 10-year high; and in India and China, growth is expected to exceed more than 20 million new engineers over the next decade.

The Master of Engineering (Professional) in Mechatronics and Automation Engineering is uniquely focused on developing the professional competencies required to work as an engineer in Australia and abroad. Through a blend of theory, practical applications and hands-on projects, you’ll learn how to create intelligent and autonomous systems that revolutionise industries and enhance our daily lives. You’ll also develop capabilities in leadership, ethics, and workplace health and safety, so that you’re well-prepared to drive innovation within your organisation.

This degree is seeking accreditation with Engineers Australia, which will enable entry to professional engineering practice for bachelor graduates who don’t have Washington Accord accreditation status.
