Course
code: 0157 Clayton campus Director of studies: To be advised
The Bachelor of Computer Systems Engineering provides a unique opportunity to
study two major disciplines (computer science and engineering) within a single
four-year degree course.
The course covers the fundamentals of computer science and electrical
engineering to prepare students for professional careers in computing. It
combines an understanding of the computer languages and operating systems of
computer science with the hardware and systems approaches of electrical
engineering. It has been designed to break down the conceptual barriers between
the software, hardware and applications aspects of computing which have, in the
past, impeded high-quality technical problem solving in the industry.
The main aim of the course is to produce professional designers of computer
systems rather than people who are simply computer users.
This course is administered jointly by the Faculty of Information Technology
and the Faculty of Engineering. Enrolments and course changes are administered
by the Faculty of Engineering office at the Clayton campus.
Graduates are eligible for professional-level membership of the Australian
Computer Society and for membership of the Institution of Engineers
Australia.
