Graduate Coursework

050801G

3210 The aim of this program is to provide a higher qualification in Systems Engineering and research training for students with a traditional engineering or other technical background. The program contains compulsory professional development courses plus discipline electives, some of which may be taken from anywhere in the University. The research training includes a substantial project and prepares students for admission to PhD programs. Prerequisites For direct entry, the normal program prerequisites are a four-year undergraduate honours degree in engineering, science or other related technical field, or completion of the ANU ME degree at a standard of at least Distinction average (or a GPA of 3 out of 4). Students without these prerequisistes, but with an equivalent combination of study and work experience, may be admitted by the Dean upon the advice of the program coordinator. Where students have completed the requirements of the ANU ME degree program, these will be transferred and counted towards the ME(Hon) degree program. Students may commence in February or July.

Master of Engineering (Honours)

The program is of two years duration, comprising 96 units of courses (sixteen 6 unit courses).  At least 78 units must be graduate level courses (6000 series and higher) and at least 24 units must be at 8000-series level. 1.  Two courses (12 units) of core ENGN8XXX listed in Schedule 1Schedule 1: Master of Engineering core courses  <table border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td valign="top">ENGN8005</td> <td valign="top">Operations Management</td> <td>6 units </td><td> S2</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top">ENGN8100</td> <td valign="top">Introduction to Systems Engineering</td> <td>6 units</td><td> S1 </td></tr> </tbody> </table> 2.  Seven courses (42 units) of Engineering Specialist courses (ENGN6XXX or higher), listed in Schedule 23.  Three University electives (18 units) selected from any approved College, School or Centre at ANU for which the student has the prerequisites, including Engineering Discipline Electives, listed in Schedule 2  and Schedule 3, or approved by the Program Convenor. 4.  A research project of 24 units to be normally taken over two semesters <table border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td>ENGN8104 </td> <td> Research Project                     </td> <td>12 units </td><td> S1/S2 </td></tr> </tbody> </table> Schedule 2:Master of Engineering Elective courses <table border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="3" valign="bottom" bgcolor="white">Course </td><td bgcolor="white">S1</td> <td bgcolor="white">S2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>ENGN6212 </td><td bgcolor="white">Manufacturing Technologies </td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units </td> <td bgcolor="white"> X </td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> </tr> <tr><td>ENGN6213</td><td>Digital Systems & Microprocessors </td><td>6 units </td><td> X </td><td> </td></tr><tr><td>ENGN6223 </td><td bgcolor="white">Control Systems </td><td bgcolor="white">6 units </td><td bgcolor="white"> </td><td bgcolor="white"> X </td></tr><tr><td>ENGN6224 </td><td bgcolor="white">Energy Systems Engineering </td><td bgcolor="white">6 units</td><td bgcolor="white"> X </td><td bgcolor="white"> </td></tr><tr><td>ENGN6334 </td><td>Semiconductors </td><td>6 units </td><td> </td><td> X  </td></tr><tr> <td>ENGN6511</td><td bgcolor="white">Composite Materials</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> </tr> <tr><td>ENGN6513 </td><td>Fibre Optics Communications Systems </td><td>6 units </td><td> X </td><td> </td></tr><tr> <td>ENGN6516 </td><td bgcolor="white">World Energy Resources and Renewable Technologies</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> </tr> <tr><td>ENGN6520 </td><td>Special Topics in Engineering 1 </td><td>6 units </td><td> X </td><td> X </td></tr><tr><td>ENGN6521</td><td>Special Topics in Engineering 2 </td><td>6 units </td><td> X  </td><td> X </td></tr><tr> <td>ENGN6524 </td><td bgcolor="white">Solar Electricity</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>ENGN6528 </td><td bgcolor="white">Computer Vision</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>ENGN6536 </td><td bgcolor="white">Wireless Communications</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> <td bgcolor="white"> X </td> </tr> <tr> <td>ENGN6601 </td><td bgcolor="white">Engineering Materials</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> </tr> <tr><td>ENGN6613 </td><td>Microphotonics, Biophotonics & Nanophotonics </td><td>6 units </td><td> </td><td> X</td></tr><tr> <td>ENGN6615</td><td bgcolor="white">Finite Element Analysis </td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> </tr> <tr> <td>ENGN6625 </td><td bgcolor="white">Power Electronics</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> <td bgcolor="white"> X </td> </tr> <tr><td>ENGN6626 </td><td>Digital Communications </td><td>6 units </td><td> X </td><td> </td></tr><tr> <td>ENGN6627 </td><td bgcolor="white">Robotics</td> <td bgcolor="white">6 units</td> <td bgcolor="white"> </td> <td bgcolor="white"> X</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>  Schedule 3<table border="1"><tbody><tr><td>COMP8110</td><td>Managing Software Projects in a Systems Context</td><td>6 units</td><td>X </td><td> X</td></tr><tr><td valign="top">COMP8XXX  </td><td valign="top">Approved senior-level Computer Science courses       </td><td>6 units</td><td>X</td><td> X</td></tr><tr><td>MGMT8005</td><td>Operations & Project Management</td><td>6 units </td><td> </td><td> </td></tr></tbody></table> The Master of Engineering with Honours Honours grades in the ME(Hons)degree are awarded by the College on the basis of a recommendation from the Head of Engineering and may be awarded with first class honours; second class honours, division A; or second class honours, division B. The awarding of honours in the ME(Hons) program is based on meritorious performance over the entire two year program. The assessment of meritorious performance includes the calculation of Average Percentage Mark (APM) calculated from each of the courses undertaken over the two years of the program, together with the consideration of overall progress of the student and the Research Project result.
