Units indexed by faculty Postgraduate Diploma in Electrical and Computer Systems EngineeringCourse code: 3266 + Course abbreviation: PGradDipElec&CompSysEng + Total credit points required: 48 + 1 year full-time, 2 years part-time Study mode and course locationOn-campus (Clayton) Course descriptionThe program is intended to appeal both to recent graduates who wish to enhance their first qualification with studies in the area of electrical and computer systems engineering to improve their prospects in this area of sustained employment growth, and to mature students who wish to select units that suit their personal and professional needs as they develop from time to time and in so doing to accumulate credit towards the program over a period of some years. Entry requirementsThe normal entry requirement is a Bachelor of Engineering degree or equivalent in a relevant or closely related discipline, eg electrical, electronic, computer systems or communications engineering, or a four-year (honours) science/applied science degree or a three-year degree and an appropriate postgraduate qualification. Applicants should note that the demand for this course is expected to exceed the quota of places available and consequently not everyone qualified for entry to the course can be admitted. Applicants are therefore advised to present their cases strongly when applying for admission. Advanced standingAdvanced standing in the program is available to applicants who hold a suitable postgraduate qualification. Course structureThe postgraduate diploma requires the completion of units totalling 48 points, of which units totalling at least 36 points must be drawn from group 1 units, and up to 12 points from units currently approved for the Master of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering course, and units totalling up to 12 points which may be taken from any postgraduate program of the university, as approved by the course director. Group 1 units include level four units offered by the Department of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering related to the study of electrical and computer systems engineering and its applications, and units as determined by the course director. The minimum length of the course is two semesters full-time, or the equivalent part-time, post three-year degree. As the course is intended to be a professional development program, there is no maximum duration for completion of studies.
