Gain a solid foundation in physics and cutting-edge materials. The degree prepares you to understand physics and materials at a deeper level, apply scientific principles in a materials context, appreciate experiment design and execution, and use scientific instruments commonly used in physics and materials.

Equip yourself to be part of the exciting world of nanotechnology. The degree provides you with a background in physics, chemistry and biology, complemented by insights into business, enterprise management, commerce, and legal issues such as intellectual property – all vital components for scientists working in business and industry.

Embark on a first-year engineering degree without choosing the engineering specialisation you wish to pursue with the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) – Flexible Entry. At the end of your first year you can transition to a named engineering degree of your choice without having to study the standard four-year course.

Link user needs to technology and commercial reality with a Bachelor of Design and Technology Innovation. Developing a new product or service requires you to identify a problem and create a commercial solution. The degree prepares you to do this by developing a sound understanding of three areas: design; innovation management; and science, technology and engineering.

Gain the foundations for further study in engineering or for a career in an engineering-related field. The degree offers specialisations in biomedical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, and software engineering.

Take a pathway that allows high-achieving students to complete a program of study in mechanical and biomedical engineering in only five years. You will study a variety of areas including dynamics, engineering design, biomechanics and biomedical instrumentation. The final year includes studies in advanced mechanical design and innovations in medical devices, allows for further elective topics to be chosen, and includes a masters thesis.

Applicants must normally hold one of the following:

• an engineering degree
• an engineering degree (for later articulation to the Master of Engineering (Mechanical)) which must include study in Statistics or Vector Mechanics
• a science degree
• a medical science degree (for later articulation to the Master of Engineering (Biomedical), which must include study in biology, chemistry/materials and human physiology)
• a computer science or information technology degree (for later articulation to the Master of Engineering (Electronics), which must include study in either programming or digital electronics)
• a chemical sciences degree (for later articulation to the Master of Engineering (Materials), which must include study in chemistry/materials)
• an Australian TAFE Diploma or Advanced Diploma (AQF Level 5) qualification in an appropriate field plus seven years relevant work experience
• an equivalent international qualification.

In addition, whatever qualification is held, students are expected to be able to demonstrate previous study or recognised prior learning in communication and planning skills, mathematics (equivalent to first-year university mathematics), and science (equivalent to university undergraduate topics in chemistry and physics). Some basic knowledge of other relevant sciences will be assumed.
