Units indexed by faculty Master of Materials EngineeringCourse code: 3260 + Course abbreviation: MMatEng + Total credit points required: 48 + 1 year full-time, 2 years part-time Study mode and course locationOff-campus (Clayton) Course descriptionThis course is intended for graduate engineers and scientists and consists of a selection of units making up 48 points. Entry requirementsNormal admission will require a four-year degree in an engineering discipline, a four-year (honours) science/applied science degree, or a three-year degree and an appropriate postgraduate qualification. Course structureThe course structure is highly flexible, with opportunities in many units to work on projects of personal or professional interest. Materials engineering is a very broad discipline, incorporating elements of the physical sciences and the traditional fields of metallurgical, ceramic and polymer engineering. With the choice of units available, the course taken by a particular student will encompass generic skills applicable to a range of materials, as well as specialised knowledge in his/her area of need. While the course will be offered flexibly in terms of study location, the units will be scheduled during the normal teaching semesters to take advantage of the university’s off-campus learning (distance education) infrastructure. High-demand units may be additionally run as short, intensive courses. While the normal progress through the course could be a minimum of two years (part-time), the duration of the course is unrestricted, allowing gradual accumulation of credit towards the award. The following units are available (48 points are required for the Master of Materials Engineering):
Alternative exitStudents undertaking this course will be able to make an alternative exit from the course with a Postgraduate Diploma in Materials Engineering, provided the requisite credit (24 points including at most 6 points of electives) has been achieved.
