General information

Gippsland campus · Normally completed in three years of part-time study by distance education · Each six credit point full-year subject requires four hours of study per week, which corresponds to about 24 hours per week for the year for a normal part-time load · Students are required to attend one four or five-day residential school each year
This course will be of greatest benefit to graduate engineers who are involved with the operation and maintenance of industrial, public sector or defence systems. The MEngMaintMgt course articulates from each of the following existing courses: Graduate Certificate in Maintenance Management; Graduate Certificate in Reliability Engineering; Graduate Diploma in Engineering Maintenance Management.

Admission requirements

Admission to the Master of Engineering Maintenance Management requires (a) a university honours degree in engineering; or (b) in circumstances considered special by the faculty board, a university pass degree in engineering; or (c) a university pass degree plus honours-equivalent experience appropriate to the field of study; or (d) completion of the Graduate Diploma in Engineering Maintenance Management with an average not less than 70 per cent (distinction).
Candidates who have completed the Monash graduate certificates and have articulated to the graduate diploma, or who have completed similar work in other universities or institutions recognised for this purpose by the faculty board, may be granted credit for up to 50 per cent (36 credit points) of the requirements for the masters degree.

Course structure

The degree comprises 54 credit points of course work followed by an 18 credit point minor thesis. Depending on the manner of entry to the program, the first two years of part-time study cover coursework required for one or other of the graduate certificates in maintenance management or reliability engineering and/or the Graduate Diploma in Engineering Maintenance Management. This enables articulation from the graduate certificates or graduate diploma to the masters program, with a maximum of 36 points of credit, for those who have performed at the requisite distinction standard, while providing alternative pathways for those who perform less well.
