Engineering
maintenance/asset management has tremendous opportunity for opportunity for
improvement, and much scope for contributing significantly to an organisation's
profitability. This has never been more so with many existing assets required
to last longer and work better.
Since 1985, hundreds of engineers, managers and senior technical people, from
many industries around Australia and overseas, have increased their skills and
capability in asset management by completing Monash University courses in
maintenance.
These courses are available by distance education only -- these subjects
are not available on campus.
The course satisfies the continuing education requirements of the Institution of Engineers, Australia
Admission
is open to those who are eligible for Graduate membership of the Institution of
Engineers Australia, or hold another degree acceptable to the Monash University
Faculty of Engineering.
Applicants without the above qualification may apply for the Graduate
Certificate course.
Some individual subjects may be studied alone, as 'non-award', meaning that
they do not count towards the Graduate Certificate or Diploma. No residential
attendance is required and anybody interested is invited to enrol. These are
available only on a fee-paying basis, and no supporting documents are required
with application.
Applicants must supply a legally certified copy of their degree testamur or
other qualifications. Note:certification is not required for certificates from
private nonaward short courses.

course requirements and commitments expected of the student. This requirement
may be waived where the applicant is self-employed, or in other exceptional

ability to meet the time commitment of the program, and has access to practical
situations for field projects and research.
Non-graduate Certificate applicants must show evidence of industry based
training or other qualifications considered acceptable to the university which
