Master of Engineering
Practice
Overview
The Master of Engineering Practice has been designed to meet
the needs of engineering leaders of the future. This program
allows practicing engineers to build on and update their knowledge,
and learn in additional areas to those taken in their first degree.
This is a 48 credit point program. The core program comprises
four 6 credit point subjects. The remaining 24 credit points
can be selected from the Engineering Postgraduate subject list
or for students wishing to have a specialization recorded on
their degree, 24 credit points of approved elective subjects
from one of the engineering streams listed below.
Students can apply to undertake the Master of Engineering Practice
in two streams. Students would complete the core program and
two 24 credit point programs of elective subjects. This is a
72 credit point program and would normally take 1.5 to 2 years
to complete. Both specializations would be recorded on the testamur.
With approval of the Course Advisor, students can undertake
a 12 credit point dissertation as part of the elective subjects.
The dissertation, ENGG940 Dissertation, is a research project
allowing students to pursue a particular area in depth. The dissertation
develops skills in information retrieval, project planning and
organization analysis, problem solving, and effective communication
of results.
