Further information
Graduates of an Australian Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) degree, or equivalent, can complete the MPE in just one year. This program is seeking provisional accreditation with Engineers Australia; and so international students seeking professional recognition from Engineers Australia and the Washington Accord, or those wishing to extend their engineering and professional expertise in an Australian context, will find the 2-year Master of Professional Engineering is the ideal program. The study program will be designed to build on prior studies and develop the core technical competencies to ensure students qualify - these will be chosen from areas such as power electronics and renewable energy systems, programmable logic design, signal processing, advanced drives and power electronics, and telecommunication networks.
