Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical &Manufacturing) and Bachelor of Arts

THERE IS NO FURTHER ENTRY INTO THIS COURSE.

Students who commenced 4th year in 2010 and have not completed, or failed the fourth year subjects required, should speak to a course advisor.

Fifth year includes a major project and an elective in advanced engineering. Many students participate in industry challenges such as the Formula SAE-A competition, or other build and demonstrate projects that are world competitive. In laboratory, research and design work students have access to specialised facilities for materials testing, wind tunnels, engine test cells and a heavy engineering workshop for the manufacture of testing facilities and experimental equipment.

Graduate research programs are available in aspects of mechanical, mechatronics, manufacturing and bioengineering. The department is internationally regarded in fluid mechanics, advanced automotive engineering technology, machine dynamics, mechatronics and biomedical engineering.

THE COURSE STRUCTURE BELOW ONLY APPLIES TO RE-ENROLLING STUDENTS WHO COMMENCED THEIR STUDIES PRIOR TO 2008

The recommended or standard course structures for engineering are listed below. When setting the timetable every effort will be made to avoid clashes between the times of classes associated with these sets of subjects. Students should be aware however, that if it proves to be impossible to achieve a timetable without clashes in these sets of subjects, the Faculty reserves the right to modify course structures in order to eliminate the conflicts. Students will be advised during the enrolment period of the semester if the recommended courses need to be varied. Where the courses include elective subjects these should be chosen so that timetable clashes are avoided. In particular, students in combined degrees should plan their c

Postgraduate study

Coursework Masters

If you wish to continue your Arts professional studies at postgraduate level, the studies you undertake in your major can provide a direct pathway to Coursework Masters Degrees in areas such as editing, media and communications, public policy and management, international studies, arts management, development studies and many more. Entry is based on academic merit and in most cases requires a Bachelors degree or equivalent in the relevant study area.

You will also be well-prepared to undertake a Melbourne Model Graduate Professional Degree in areas such as engineering, law, teaching and commerce.

For more information on entry into a coursework masters degree, see the Arts coursework programs webpage, or Engineering coursework information page

Research Higher Degrees

If you wish to undertake advanced research and explore particular study areas in more depth, there will be opportunities to proceed to a range of Research Higher Degrees at masters and doctoral level - information about research higher degree study in Engineering and the Arts webpage.
