Master of Engineering Practice
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationIn our Master of Engineering Practice, students build on their undergraduate study to prepare for a career as a Civil, Electronics, Mechanical or Microelectronic Engineer.
This course allows students to develop specialised technical knowledge in the same or related Engineering discipline.
It should appeal to recent graduates from a Bachelor of Engineering looking for postgraduate education to differentiate themselves from other engineering graduates entering the workforce. Similarly, it should appeal to early-career engineers looking to redirect their career or to move beyond junior positions.
