*The indicative course fees shown here applies to students studying on-campus in Malaysia for the relevant year only. They are based on a standard study load per year. However, please note that fees are assessed according to a student's study load in each semester, and variation to study load will result in an adjustment to tuition fees. All fees are subject to annual review and may be adjusted.

The Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics and Computer Systems) prepares graduates for professions characterised by the growth of new technologies and new opportunities. This course provides professional career opportunities in a range of dynamic high-technology areas including the overlapping fields of computer hardware and software, telecommunications, electronics and computer systems.

Swinburne also offers double degrees in Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics and Computer Systems)/Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics and Computer Systems) / Bachelor of Science (Computer Science and Software Engineering).

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 Electronics and Computer Systems Engineering projects that are motivational, entrepreneurial, research and/or
    industry linked
2) Take leadership and mentoring roles during the design and implementation phases of Electronics and Computer Systems Engineering
    projects
3) Work in local and/or international organisations demonstrating an understanding of global engineering issues
4) Apply Electronics and Computer Systems 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 Electronics and Computer Systems Engineering to practice as a Electronics and
    Computer Systems 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

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.
