Units indexed by faculty Master of Electrical and Computer Systems EngineeringCourse code: 3265 + Course abbreviation: MElec&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 four-year engineering degree with honours or postgraduate-diploma-level qualification in a discipline that provides a suitable basis for the course, eg electrical, electronic, computer systems or communications engineering. With the approval of the director of postgraduate coursework studies, applicants with a four-year engineering degree with honours or postgraduate diploma in a discipline not directly related to the course will be considered, if they have relevant experience in computer systems, electrical engineering or communication engineering. Advanced standingAdvanced standing in the program is available for applicants who hold a suitable postgraduate qualification. A maximum of 12 points of level five units from the Postgraduate Diploma in Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering or Telecommunications Engineering may be counted towards the Master of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering. Course structureThe masters course will normally consist of coursework units only. With the approval of the course coordinator, a 12-point group 2 project or a 24-point minor thesis may be taken, which will be assessed by two examiners (the minor thesis is intended for candidates intending to proceed to doctoral studies). In the case of those taking the 12-point project, up to 12 points of units may be drawn from any postgraduate program of the university. Units comprising at least 24 points must be chosen from the group 2 unit list. Group 2 units
Note that not all units will be available in any given year. The minimum length of the course is two semesters full-time, or equivalent part-time, post four-year degree. As the course is intended to be a professional development program, there is no maximum duration for completion of studies.
