Coordinator: Ray Beebe + Gippsland campus + Normally completed in
three years of part-time study by off-campus distributed learning + Each
six-credit-point full-year unit 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
of the first two years.
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 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 to the Master of Maintenance and Reliability Engineering 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 65 per cent
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.
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 standard, while providing alternative pathways for those who
perform less well.
The following units are available in the maintenance management/ reliability engineering graduate programs:
