COURSE DESCRIPTION
A Diploma is a 12-month course that gives you the foundational skills and knowledge in a specific area of study. A Diploma in Engineering will take you straight into Second Year of a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) at UNSW.
It is a great option for you as an international student if you need a bit more support but don’t want to add extra time to your degree. If you have just missed out on direct entry into your preferred bachelor’s degree, or hold qualifications that are not recognised by UNSW Sydney, this could also be the program for you.
Who is this program for?
The UNSW Diploma Program has been designed specifically for international students. Our Diplomas make it easy to adjust to university, with:
smaller classes and at least 20% extra teaching time
additional English and academic support
course material equivalent to First Year courses within the UNSW Sydney degree, and
access to the same facilities and resources as undergraduate students.
With an innovative First Year equivalent curriculum, you will gain a solid background in the natural sciences, programming, and introductory engineering courses. You will also get to design, develop and build your first prototype in your first engineering design course. This will give you a taster of what it is like for engineers in the real world.
Why study engineering at UNSW Sydney?
Work with robots, boost energy production or design bionic limbs.
UNSW are world leaders in engineering education and research and have the No.1 Engineering faculty in Australia. Add in a recent $1 billion facilities upgrade, and you have everything you need to build a successful future in this field.
UNSW provides world-class education and a career-focused student experience. You will belong to a connected student community with opportunities to expand your network socially and professionally, as well as full access to UNSW’s world-class libraries, labs, clubs and societies.
You will explore new ideas and diverse perspectives within a vibrant student community, through a wide choice of majors available in your Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).
