The Bachelor of Engineering courses at all campuses, the engineering
double-degree courses, the Bachelor of Computer Systems Engineering and the
Bachelor of Environmental Engineering are all accredited for the purpose of
admission to membership of Engineers Australia. Graduates of the Bachelor of
Technology (Computer Studies) are eligible for Affiliate-Technologist
membership of Engineers Australia. Of the more recently commenced courses, the
Bachelor of Engineering/Bachelor of Technology (Aerospace), the Bachelor of
Telecommunications Engineering and the Bachelor of Technology (Infrastructure -
Design, Construction and Management) have been granted provisional
accreditation by Engineers Australia pending first graduations. The Bachelor of
Aerospace Engineering has been designed to meet the accreditation requirements
of Engineers Australia.
The Engineering Accreditation Council of Malaysia (EAC) and Engineers Australia
have accredited the Bachelor of Engineering programs in mechanical and
mechatronics engineering offered at the Malaysia campus. The EAC consists of
the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM), the Institution of Engineers Malaysia
(IEM), Lembaga Akreditasi Negara (LAN) and Jabatan Perkhidmatan Awam Malaysia
(JPA). The Bachelor of Engineering program in electrical and computer systems
engineering at the Malaysia campus has received provisional accreditation from
EAC and Engineers Australia. It is expected to be fully accredited by the end
of 2004, with the first cohort of students having completed the program.
The Institution of Chemical Engineers (UK) has accredited the Bachelor of
Engineering (Chemical), Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical)/Bachelor of Arts,
Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Engineering (Chemical), Bachelor of
Engineering (Chemical)/Bachelor of Laws, and Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of
Engineering (Chemical) as equivalent to the MEng degree from a recognised UK
university.
The Bachelor of Computer Systems Engineering, Bachelor of Engineering
(Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering) including the engineering double
degrees at Clayton, Bachelor of Telecommunications Engineering and Bachelor of
Technology (Computer Studies) are also accredited at the professional level by
the Australian Computer Society.
In order to fulfil the requirements of the various degree regulations and Engineers Australia, all engineering students must complete 12 weeks of approved engineering work experience and submit a report on that work. Such work is normally undertaken in the vacations between second and third years and/or between third and fourth years (but may also be taken between first and second years). Students who have completed all academic requirements for their degrees are not eligible to graduate until this work experience has been completed and a satisfactory report submitted.
