About the course

Course Description:

The Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Electronic Engineering is a broad-based course and develops in students a mastery of the basic engineering principles underlying electrical and electronic engineering with emphasis on electronic and micro-controllers-based design, operation and control of electrical machines, power system generation and distribution, systems modelling, automation and control. The program develops students’ abilities to analyse, identify, formulate and generate specific solutions in the broad field of electrical and electronic engineering.

Swinburne also offers a double degree in Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical and Electronic Engineering)/Bachelor of Commerce.

Program Objectives:

The following six objectives are the typical skills and abilities that Swinburne graduates will have a few years after graduation as they develop their professional engineer careers.

1) Manage complex Electrical and Electronic Engineering projects that are motivational, entrepreneurial, research and/or industry linked

2) Take leadership and mentoring roles during the design and implementation phases of Electrical and Electronic Engineering projects

3) Work in local and/or international organisations demonstrating an understanding of global engineering issues

4) Apply Electrical and Electronic Engineering technical expertise to industry-related fields

5) Work autonomously and in teams within organisations or as a consultant

6) Apply ethical standards, principles of design for sustainable development, and environmental consideration to conceptualising and

implementing industry-related projects

Program Outcomes:

At completion of their engineering program at Swinburne, graduates should be able to:

a) apply fundamental knowledge of engineering, mathematics and science
b) use the techniques, skills and modern tools in Electrical and Electronic Engineering to practice as an Electrical and Electronic Engineer
c) identify, formulate, solve and evaluate engineering problems
d) design and conduct experiments as well as to analyse and interpret data
e) identify and practice professional and ethical responsibility
f) design and develop engineering solutions to meet desired needs within realistic economic, environmental, social, ethical, health and

safety, manufacturing, and sustainability constraints
g) apply knowledge and skills that are demonstrably in demand by the industry
h) recognise the need for and to engage in lifelong learning
i) function and communicate effectively in multi-disciplinary teams

Course Structure:

Units of Study :

Students studying on an international student visa must complete HED400 Professional Experience in Engineering. All other students may complete an Industry-Based Learning placement instead (exemption will be granted for HED400 on completion of IBL).

HED400 Professional Experience in Engineering: Equivalent of 12 full-time weeks of approved relevant engineering practical experience (0 credit points, 0 fees). To be taken at any stage during the degree.

HEW050 Industry-Based Learning (Placement 1), HEW055 Industry-Based Learning (Placement 2): Full-time paid placement in industry for 6 (HEW050) or 12 months (HEW050 & HEW055) in an area relevant to your studies (0 academic credit points, unit fees apply). Students should attend an information session one semester prior to the scheduled IBL entry point.

Education Abroad:

Swinburne offers International Exchange Programs as well as other Education Abroad Programs to help internationalise your degree. International Exchange is an academic program allowing you to study at a Swinburne Partner Institution for one or two semesters during your degree. Swinburne's Partner Institutions offer many relevant subjects as well as a secure base to explore a different culture. Your studies whilst on exchange can be credited towards your Swinburne degree, provided they are relevant and approved by Swinburne. For further information visit the Swinburne Abroad website.

Employment Outcomes

Career opportunities:

Graduates can take up careers in a wide spectrum of industries, including automotive, robotics, aerospace, power industry, electronic appliances, manufacturing, and industrial research. Contributions can be made to these industries in a variety of roles including design engineer, project planner, product designer and project manager.

Professional recognition:

This program has also been professionally accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) Malaysia and Engineers Australia.
Graduates are eligible to apply for membership of Engineers Australia as well as Graduate Membership of Board of Engineers Malaysia.
