The course provides specialised training in robotics for those intending to
work as engineers, programmers, technical specialists or managers interested in
the application of robotics to industrial processes in manufacturing
industries.
Unit offerings enable students with specific experience in computer science,
electrical engineering or mechanical engineering to acquire the
multidisciplinary expertise that provides a clear appreciation of industrial
robot operation and application. Graduates from the course will have an
in-depth understanding, through theoretical material and practical exercises,
of the issues that need to be addressed in engineering a functional industrial
robot work-cell.
The
minimum entry requirement is a three-year degree or diploma in a course which
provides a relevant foundation for studies in robotics, or an equivalent
qualification. For example, a degree in engineering, science or data processing
would be acceptable.
Applicants without degree or diploma qualifications may also be admitted on the
basis of work experience. The level of work experience required would be at
least five years in a position carrying significant technical responsibility in
an area relevant to the course. The number of places available to applicants in
this category is limited to 25 per cent.
The Graduate Certificate in Robotics comprises 24 credit points of study taken over one year full-time or two years part-time. All units carry a weight of one unit with the exception of CSE4843 (Robotics project), which has a weight of 12 points.
