Postgraduate majors are available in Master of Engineering (ME), Master of Engineering Studies (MEStud) and Graduate Certificates.
The Faculty of Engineering offers an extensive range of programs by research and/or coursework through its award and non-award courses. A selection of these designated as 2004 program majors are described below. Information on other specialist research areas can be obtained from individual members of academic staff.
Program majors have been developed to match the needs of engineers and other professionals. They provide opportunities for advanced studies and professional development in engineering and cross-disciplinary areas between engineering and other disciplines. All postgraduate program majors are differentiated by their focus, structure, presentation, attendance flexibility, assessment practices and multiple entry/completion options.
Students are entitled to have the name of the major listed in the degree transcript (not the testamur), if they have completed the following:
- ME (by coursework): A minimum of four subjects (24 credit points) must be completed within the particular postgraduate program major as described below, together with an approved Graduate Project in the major of between 18 and 30 credit points. Indicated major compulsory subjects must be completed.
- MEStud: A minimum of four subjects (24 credit points) must be completed within the particular postgraduate program major as described below. Indicated compulsory major subjects must be completed. Any special topics listed in the program major are not available in the MEStud. To obtain the Energy Planning and Policy major or the Software and Information Systems Engineering major, students must complete eight subjects (48 credit points) from the respective program major list. MEStud Group A subjects do not apply to these majors.
- Graduate Certificate: A minimum of three subjects (18 credit points) must be completed within the particular postgraduate program major as described below. Indicated compulsory major subjects must be completed.
Postgraduate program majors reflect current research strengths and interests in the Faculty of Engineering, and change with time. It is expected that all of the postgraduate program majors listed below will be offered in 2004. However, the availability of individual subjects in any year is influenced by student demand, arrangements with visiting lecturers, scheduling within the University, and policies on class sizes.
If, in the opinion of the Director, Postgraduate Coursework Programs, a student does not have the required prerequisite knowledge to successfully undertake and complete a major, the student may be required to undertake one or two preparatory undergraduate subjects.
