Program overview
In your first year, you will develop skills in problem-solving, teamwork and professional practice together with learning foundation technical content. In second term you will undertake an authentic industry project with work-integrated learning. By the end of first year, you will have experienced many engineering projects which will assist you to decide which engineering discipline you wish to pursue: civil, electrical, mechanical or mechatronics.
Second year is all about expanding knowledge and skills in your discipline. Your exposure to projects will continue, which will give you opportunities to apply the theoretical knowledge you have gained to deliver tangible engineering outcomes. As early as the end of your second year of study, you will go on an industry placement where you will develop your skills and experience in a professional engineering practice. Later in your course, you will complete a second placement, making a total of at least 48 weeks of paid industrial experience by the end of your course. The work placements give you the opportunity to earn while you learn, find out what engineering is really about, put the theory you have learnt into practice and develop an industry network.
In the upper levels of your course, you will develop a deeper understanding of the foundation knowledge that you gained in first and second year. In some units, you will explore specific aspects of your discipline. You will also complete 3 project units where you will work on authentic projects, sometimes with an industry mentor. In civil, electrical and mechanical majors you will have the opportunity to choose an elective that will enhance your career prospects in your chosen field. Finally, you will complete a major individual project to confirm your ability to work as a professional engineer.
This CQUniversity work-integrated-learning engineering course incorporates Project Based Learning, Co-operative Education and Professional Practice, providing learning in context and industry employment integrated into your study course. Teamwork and problem-solving skills are learned alongside technical content in exciting authentic contexts.
You will graduate with a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) leading to qualification as a professional engineer and a Diploma of Professional Practice (Co-op Engineering) attesting to your advanced knowledge, skills and experience in professional engineering practice.
