Courses by faculty: Faculty of Engineering

This course will focus on aerodynamics, aerospace materials, aerospace structures, propulsion and aerospace instrumentation and control. This will be complemented by a major emphasis on design, which will be taught with a project-based focus. Current industry practice and guidance on professional issues such as ethics, legal, environmental and safety issues will also be covered along with an understanding of the role of the aerospace industry in a wider, global context.

These course outcomes are aligned with the Australian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate AttributesAustralian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate Attributes (http://monash.edu/pubs/handbooks/alignmentofoutcomes.html).

Upon successful completion of this course it is expected that graduates will be able to:

• identify, interpret and critically appraise current developments and advanced technologies and apply them to aerospace engineering
• identify and synthesise the constraints posed by economic factors, safety considerations, environment impacts and professional standards on engineering practice and use them to inform professional judgements
• determine, analyse and proficiently apply theoretical and numerical analysis of phenomena to predict, design, control and optimise the performance of aerospace engineering systems
• research, identify, conceptualise, investigate, and interpret knowledge from modern engineering tools and techniques to synthesise a coherent approach to the solution of a problem and/or the design of a project
• identify and critically evaluate the performance of an engineering system in terms of economics, safety and the social and physical environment, and implement approaches to minimise any adverse impact leading to sustainable development
• show awareness of and ability to proficiently apply project management tools and methodologies to the planning and execution of projects leading to engineering solutions of a professional standard
• develop and implement creative and innovative approaches to problem solving
• communicate effectively on both technical and general issues with peers, associates, clients and the general public
• operate effectively and professionally within a team environment
• plan, organise and use resources efficiently
• demonstrate the highest standards of personal performance
• demonstrate commitment to lifelong learning and professional development
• understand the responsibilities of engineers to the community, the engineering profession and the industrial and business world
• demonstrate commitment to ethical standards and legal responsibilities to the community and the profession.

Vacation work/industrial experience

The Faculty of Engineering strongly recommends that all undergraduate students enrolled in four, five and six year engineering single or double degrees complete 12 weeks of engineering vacation employment. Vacation employment is an integral part of student development, and is an excellent avenue to prepare for future engineering careers by gaining experience in an industrial setting and establishing industry networks.

Level one includes the basic sciences such as mathematics, physics and chemistry, combined with one introductory aerospace engineering unit. The large majority of students entering the faculty have completed the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), and references in the following paragraphs are to the prerequisite VCE subjects. Some domestic and international students enter the faculty with equivalent qualifications, and advice about unit choice for students with qualifications other than the VCE may be obtained from the faculty administration offices. Foundation units are required for students who have not completed appropriate VCE studies.

The core discipline areas of aerospace engineering include aerodynamics, propulsion, materials, structures, avionics/control, design and dynamics/mechanics. In each of these areas, the course has a unit that lays the foundations of the discipline at level two, followed by an advanced unit that provides a significant engineering practice component at level three. For the most part, the second unit at level three is a terminal unit in the discipline but there are integrative units in level four that further build on or complement these terminal discipline units.

At level four the orientation is towards professional and project-based units. There is also an inter-faculty elective and two technical electives drawn from across the faculty.

Vacation work/industrial experience

The Faculty of Engineering strongly recommends that all undergraduate students enrolled in four, five and six year engineering single or double degrees complete 12 weeks of engineering vacation employment. Vacation employment is an integral part of student development, and is an excellent avenue to prepare for future engineering careers by gaining experience in an industrial setting and establishing industry networks.

Refer to the Faculty of Engineering's Professional recognition of coursesProfessional recognition of courses (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2014handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html) page in this Handbook.

This course consists of core and elective units.

The course commences with the establishment of a sound foundation in computer science, electrical engineering, mathematics and the physical sciences. Engineering units comprise approximately one-half laboratory-based studies. Engineering management units strengthen the formal basis of project management. Elective units are provided to allow specialisation in some aspect of the field of study, with approved electives to permit broadening of intellectual and personal horizons. Approved electives comprise approximately 25 per cent of unit material at levels two and three of the course, with 50 per cent elective material at level four. The flexible elective structure permits students to choose the particular area of computer systems engineering they wish to initially specialise in upon graduation. Students are also encouraged, where appropriate, to use electives to take international studies, including human languages, and studies through the evolving collaborations with other universities overseas.

The design and thesis projects at levels three and four build self-reliance and planning capabilities in both individual and team-based environments. Projects are often related closely to the department's exceptionally strong research and collaborative industry programs within its research centres.

The award of an honours degree in engineering is based on academic achievement.

Vacation work/industrial experience

The Faculty of Engineering strongly recommends that all undergraduate students enrolled in four, five and six year engineering single or double degrees complete 12 weeks of engineering vacation employment. Vacation employment is an integral part of student development, and is an excellent avenue to prepare for future engineering careers by gaining experience in an industrial setting and establishing industry networks.

Refer to the faculty's Professional recognition of coursesProfessional recognition of courses (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2014handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html) page in this Handbook.

This course consists of 192 points of engineering studies, incorporating common level one units (48 points) and a specialisation in one of the available branches, including compulsory units and in some branches, electives.

Five of the eight units in the common level one are compulsory. A student's choice of the remaining units must take into account both the level of mathematics, chemistry and physics completed prior to admission to the course, and the branch of engineering into which the student hopes to proceed at the end of level one.

Refer to the course mapcourse map (http://www.eng.monash.edu.au/current-students/course-map.html) for guidance on how to plan your unit enrolment for each semester of study.

Chemical engineering

(Clayton/Malaysia)

The core units covered at levels one and two provide the necessary background in the sciences, engineering fundamentals such as fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, and chemical engineering principles. Levels three and four of the course are designed around the core topics of mass transfer, heat transfer, separation processes, reaction engineering, chemical thermodynamics, process control, particle technology, process design, sustainability and safety. Practical work forms an essential part of many units, and considerable emphasis is placed on this aspect of the program. Process simulation software is used by students throughout the course. Management studies are introduced in later levels and a greater emphasis is placed on synthesis and design, culminating in each student completing a design project, and another major project in the final level. Students are given the opportunity to integrate a period of industrial experience or time at an overseas university with their studies.

Upon entry to the branch of chemical engineering, students choose to specialise in one of three streams. Each stream involves 126 points of core chemical engineering units and 18 points of stream units at levels three and four.

The Faculty of Engineering strongly recommends that all undergraduate students enrolled in four, five and six year engineering single or double degrees complete 12 weeks of engineering vacation employment. Vacation employment is an integral part of student development, and is an excellent avenue to prepare for future engineering careers by gaining experience in an industrial setting and establishing industry networks.

Refer to the Faculty of Engineering's Professional recognition of coursesProfessional recognition of courses (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2015handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html) page in this Handbook.

This course consists of:

(a.) 156 points of engineering studies incorporating common level one units and foundation units if required, and a specialisation in one of the available branches, including compulsory units and in some branches, electives.

(b.) 96 points of arts studies composed of major and minor studies, and additional units which may be chosen to form a second minor.

In the first level of study, students must complete engineering units worth 36 points and 12 points of level one units in an arts discipline. Thereafter candidates undertake further studies in arts as outlined in the requirements and studies in one of the offered branches of engineering.

In selecting units in both arts and engineering, students should be aware of any constraints imposed by timetabling and the need to satisfy prerequisites for later level units. Most students will probably undertake some engineering and some arts units in each level of study.

The actual engineering award conferred depends on the engineering specialisation completed.

The program is only available to students in the discipline of mechanical engineering and enables creative students to pursue their interests in both engineering design and industrial design, with a focus on high-technology consumer product design. With a continuing international trend to accelerated product development, facilitated by new interdisciplinary group techniques such as 'concurrent engineering', there is growing need for graduates with multidisciplinary skills and an ability to communicate with professionals from other disciplines; this course is intended to address that need.

There is a common technological core for both the Bachelor of Engineering (four-year) and the Bachelor of Design (Industrial Design) (three-year) courses offered at Monash University. The amalgamation of the common cores means that the double degree still achieves the full objectives of both courses. Consequently, graduates will be able to synthesise advanced technology and consumer product design in the creation of new manufactured artefacts and will be able to facilitate cooperation in new product development teams by being sensitive to the different professional viewpoints of the team members.

Refer to the single degree entry for 4632 Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).

Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Chemical Engineering
Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Science

The environmental engineering course has been designed to be multidisciplinary. At third year, the selection of one major stream or two minor streams, provides for in-depth treatment of one or more specific areas of application of environmental engineering principles. Thus core engineering knowledge and skills are complemented by units from science, economics, arts and law. The elective streams include environmental process engineering, transport and the built environment, and water and land management.

These course outcomes are aligned with the Australian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate AttributesAustralian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate Attributes (http://monash.edu/pubs/handbooks/alignmentofoutcomes.html).

Upon successful completion of this course it is expected that graduates will be able to:

• develop and proficiently apply fundamental environmental engineering knowledge and skills to solve complex problems
• identify, interpret and critically appraise current developments and advanced technologies and apply them to environmental engineering
• identify and synthesise the constraints posed by economic factors, safety considerations, environment impacts and professional standards on engineering practice and use them to inform professional judgements
• integrate sustainability criteria into all levels of decision making
• research, identify, conceptualise, investigate, and interpret knowledge from modern engineering tools and techniques to synthesise a coherent approach to the solution of a problem and/or the design of a project
• identify and critically evaluate the performance of an engineering system in terms of economics, safety and the social and physical environment, and implement approaches to minimise any adverse impact leading to sustainable development
• understand and address the political, social and economic factors in environmental management in a systematic way leading to sustainable solutions
• show awareness of and ability to proficiently apply impact assessment skills to the planning and execution of projects leading to sustainable solutions of a professional standard
• develop and apply a global perspective on environmental issues
• Communicate effectively on both technical and general issues with peers, associates, clients and the general public
• operate effectively and professionally in a multi-disciplinary team to avoid and solve engineering problems
• plan, organise and use resources efficiently
• demonstrate the highest standards of personal performance
• demonstrate commitment to lifelong learning and professional development
• develop and implement a sustainability ethic taking account of the responsibilities of engineers to the community, the engineering profession and the industrial and business world
• demonstrate commitment to ethical standards and legal responsibilities to the community and the profession
• develop and proficiently apply analytical and design skills in at least one major specialised environmental engineering area.

Vacation work/industrial experience

The Faculty of Engineering strongly recommends that all undergraduate students enrolled in four, five and six year engineering single or double degrees complete 12 weeks of engineering vacation employment. Vacation employment is an integral part of student development, and is an excellent avenue to prepare for future engineering careers by gaining experience in an industrial setting and establishing industry networks.

Refer to the Faculty of Engineering's Professional recognition of coursesProfessional recognition of courses (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2014handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html) page in this Handbook.

This course consists of core and elective units.

Level one of the course provides a broad base of science, mathematics, introductory engineering and environment units designed to form the basis of a multidisciplinary engineering education.

Level two increases the engineering content, which is a mixture of core engineering units and more environmentally-directed units. Mathematics is continued. Environmental policy is introduced to begin to integrate the content gained from the other units.

Level three introduces more environmentally-focused engineering units. It builds upon the core units of level two, provides units that address environmental impact and management systems, and sees the commencement of the selected elective stream(s). From level three, the course is divided into three streams:

• environmental process engineering
• transport and the built environment
• water and land management

Students must choose one major or two minor elective streams, taking core units at each level as well as stream core and stream elective units from their chosen stream(s).

Level four seeks to integrate and provide application for much of the earlier knowledge and skills developed by way of substantial engineering design and project work within the various specific elective streams. These units are complemented by further in-depth elective units, and interdisciplinary units from environmental law, economics and policy areas.

Refer to the course mapcourse map (http://www.eng.monash.edu.au/current-students/course-map.html) for guidance on how to plan your unit enrolment for each semester of study.

Refer to the Faculty of Engineering's Professional recognition of coursesProfessional recognition of courses (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2014handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html) page in this Handbook.

This course consists of:

(a.) 156 points of environmental engineering studies composed of core and elective units, and foundation units if required, plus a choice of streams at levels four and five from:

• water and land management
• transport and the built environment

(b.) 96 points of arts studies composed of major and minor studies, and additional units which may be chosen to form a second minor.

In the first level of study, students must complete engineering units worth 36 points and 12 points of units in an arts discipline. Thereafter candidates undertake further studies in arts and studies in environmental engineering.

In selecting units in both arts and engineering, students should be aware of any constraints imposed by timetabling and the need to satisfy prerequisites for later level units. Most students will probably undertake some engineering and some arts units in each level of study.

Bachelor of Environmental Engineering (Honours)
Bachelor of Science

The honours degree of Bachelor of Laws satisfies the academic requirements for admission to practice as an Australian lawyer. It is also a preparation for diverse careers in and beyond the law, and a pathway to masters and doctoral qualifications. The course provides coherent and advanced knowledge of the sources of law, the principal areas of law, legal concepts and broader perspectives about the law. It develops professional skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, research, communication, collaboration with others, self-management, ethical awareness and professional judgment. The skills and knowledge learned in the course are applied in a later year project which provides varied research activities and outputs. The elective component gives flexibility to choose from a wide range of specialist units, to study overseas, and to undertake work-based learning. The faculty offers students significant international learning experiences (not only through the on-campus curricula but also through off-campus international exchange and study abroad experiences), internships locally and internationally, and a legal clinical program.

The study of aerospace engineering focuses on aerodynamics, aerospace materials, aerospace structures, propulsion and aerospace instrumentation and control. This is complemented by a major emphasis on design, which is taught with a project-based focus. Current industry practice and guidance on professional issues such as ethics, legal, environmental and safety issues are also covered along with an understanding of the role of the aerospace industry in a wider, global context.

These course outcomes are aligned with the Australian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate AttributesAustralian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate Attributes (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/alignmentofoutcomes.html).

(1.) an understanding of a coherent body of knowledge that includes:

• the fundamental areas of legal knowledge, the Australian legal system, and underlying principles and concepts, including international and comparative contexts
• the broader contexts within which legal issues arise
• the principles and values of justice and of ethical practice in lawyers' roles

(2.) ethics and professional responsibility including:

• an advanced understanding of approaches to ethical decision-making
• an ability to recognise and reflect upon, and a developing ability to respond to, ethical issues likely to arise in professional contexts
• an ability to recognise and reflect upon the professional responsibilities of lawyers in promoting justice and in service to the community
• a developing ability to exercise professional judgment

(3.) thinking skills to:

• identify and articulate complex legal issues
• apply legal reasoning and research to generate appropriate responses to legal issues
• engage in critical analysis and make reasoned choices amongst alternatives
• demonstrate cognitive and creative skills in approaching legal issues and generating appropriate responses and developing new understandings

The course provides coherent and advanced knowledge of the sources of law, the principal areas of law, legal concepts and broader perspectives about the law. It develops professional skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, research, communication, collaboration with others, self-management, ethical awareness and professional judgment. The skills and knowledge learned in the course are applied in a later year project which provides varied research activities and outputs. The elective component gives flexibility to choose from a wide range of specialist units, to study overseas, and to undertake work-based learning. The faculty offers students significant international learning experiences (not only through the on-campus curricula but also through off-campus international exchange and study abroad experiences), internships locally and internationally, and a legal clinical program.

Candidates for the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) choose to specialise in one of the following branches of engineering:

• chemical engineering
• civil engineering
• electrical and computer systems engineering
• materials engineering
• mechanical engineering.

The common level one engineering studies allow students to keep open the option of entering any of the branches. There are limits on the number of students who may enrol in each branch and, where demand exceeds supply, students will be admitted on the basis of academic merit (results at level one). Students who do not get their first choice will be offered a place in one of their other preferences. If students wish to change branches at a later level of the course, some additional units may be required and the transition could extend the duration of study in the course.

These course outcomes are aligned with the Australian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate AttributesAustralian Qualifications Framework level 8, the Bologna Cycle 1 and Monash Graduate Attributes (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/alignmentofoutcomes.html).

Admission to practice: Disciplinary reports

Students should note that a domestic applicant applying for admission to practise law in Victoria is required by the Admission Rules 2008 to provide to the Board of Examiners:

• a report from the University disclosing any disciplinary action taken against the student during the course (including any finding under the University Discipline Statute that the student has cheated in an assessment)
• an affidavit stating that the applicant has made full written disclosure of "every matter which a reasonable applicant would consider that the Board of Examiners might regard as not being favourable to the applicant". This may include an incident of academic or general misconduct, even if it did not lead to disciplinary action.

The Board of Examiners will consider these matters in assessing whether the applicant is a "fit and proper person to be admitted to the legal profession".

The actual engineering award conferred depends on the engineering specialisation completed.

This course is concerned with extracting and processing ores from the earth. It requires the use of mathematics, computer applications, physical sciences including geoscience, and economics to be able to manage mining operations from exploration to the final processing stage.

The course covers mine design and operation, both surface and underground, ventilation systems, mineral processing, mine feasibility and environmental aspects. This requires a wide range of skills relating to technology, finance, people and the environment. The emphasis of the course is on sustainable development so that the environmental footprint of mining is minimised.

Mining engineers work with a wide range of people, both professional and non- professional. Good communication skills are therefore essential.

The course is a combination of theory and practice, is essentially problem-based, and has significant input from the mining sector.

Graduates from this course are expected to be able to:

• understand and proficiently apply the relevant sciences and scientific methods to mining engineering practice, to design solutions to complex problems
• identify and critically appraise the principles of the management of physical, human and financial resources associated with the practice of mining engineering
• identify and synthesise the constraints posed by economic factors, safety considerations and environmental impacts on mining engineering practice and use them to inform professional judgements
• determine, analyse and proficiently apply theoretical and numerical analysis of phenomena to predict, design, control and optimise the performance of mine systems
• research, identify, conceptualise, investigate, and interpret knowledge from different areas to synthesise a coherent approach to the solution of mining engineering problems or design of a mine project
• understand and critically evaluate the performance of a mining engineering system in terms of economics, safety and the environment, and implement approaches to minimise any adverse impact on the environment (physical, social and economic) leading to sustainable development
• critically evaluate assumptions and arguments
• recognise the need for, and implement, continuous change to improve outcomes
• develop and implement creative approaches to problem solving, including the use of computer based methods
• communicate effectively on both technical and general issues with peers, associates, clients and the general public
• function as an effective individual or as part of a team
• plan, organise and use resources efficiently
• demonstrate the highest standards of personal performance
• demonstrate commitment to self directed learning for continuing education
• understand the responsibilities of mining engineers to the community, the engineering profession and the industrial and business world
• demonstrate commitment to ethical standards and legal responsibilities to the community and the profession.

Vacation work/industrial experience

The Faculty of Engineering strongly recommends that all undergraduate students enrolled in four, five and six year engineering single or double degrees complete 12 weeks of engineering vacation employment. Vacation employment is an integral part of student development, and is an excellent avenue to prepare for future engineering careers by gaining experience in an industrial setting and establishing industry networks.

Refer to the Faculty of Engineering's Professional recognition of coursesProfessional recognition of courses (http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2014handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html) page in this Handbook.

This course consists of core and elective units, and foundation units if required.

Level one includes the basic sciences such as mathematics, physics and chemistry, combined with one introductory mining engineering unit.

The core discipline areas of mining engineering include field geology, mineral processing, environmental change and resource estimation, mining systems/planning, coal mine/hard rock/mine design, geotechnics, geoengineering and geoscience. In each of these areas, the course has a unit that lays the foundations of the discipline at level two, followed by an advanced unit that provides a significant engineering practice component at level three.

At level four the orientation is towards professional and project-based units.

The award of an honours grade in engineering is based on academic achievement.
