The
Diploma of Engineering (Industrial Management) is a two-year equivalent
full-time course by off-campus distributed learning providing training and
education in basic business and industrial management procedures. It also gives
the option of studies in basic engineering units. The course provides good
supervision/ management education for people working in such positions as
technical officers, engineering assistants, and engineering and industrial
supervisors. It is a very useful course for people wanting to advance into
supervisory or management positions.
The course is designed for part-time study, causing minimum interference to
employment by use of off-campus distributed learning options with weekend
schools in some units.
(a) Successful
completion of a Year 12 secondary school course of study, including a pass in
English (VCE in Victoria or equivalent in other states, or International
Baccalauereate), or
(b) Completion of the first year of a TAFE associate diploma or advanced
certificate (level 4 or above), or
(c) Completion of at least two semester-length units at degree or
associate-diploma level, including any non-award/single-unit studies,
or
(d) Completion of two approved units through Open Learning Agency of
Australia.
Note: Completion of two units from these course units on a fee-paying
basis is considered equivalent. Anybody is welcome to enrol in a single
unit without enrolling in the full course, however a complete
qualification is best and can only be gained by applying for a course (and
passing it).
Students will need access to an IBM-compatible computer.
Some engineering units may offer optional sessions at a weekend school. Units offered by other schools may require more.
The
course consists of five modules from which a student must pass modules one, two
and five and either module three or four. Students should normally complete
modules one and two before doing the other modules. Units from several modules
may be studied at the same time. Not all units are offered each year.
Well-motivated students can reasonably undertake 24 credit points per year,
thus permitting completion of the course by four years off-campus distributed
learning study.
