This is a three-year, professionally oriented course designed to produce graduates with the knowledge and skills in computer science and computer technology which will enable them to work as computer engineering technologists. The course aims to develop students' communication and management skills and to develop their self-education skills and flexibility of mind in a world of rapid technological change.

Articulation

After successful completion of the course, students who have achieved sufficiently good results may apply to transfer to the third year of the Bachelor of Computer Systems Engineering course. Interested students should contact the Department of Computer Science and Computer Engineering for further details.

Industry experience

In accordance with the requirements of the Institution of Engineers, Australia, students must complete at least eight weeks of approved practical experience before being deemed to have completed the course. This is normally obtained during the vacation following the end of the second year of the course.

Course structure

The program combines studies in computer science, computer systems engineering, engineering management and computer technology, as well as electronics, physics and mathematics. The course content is fixed for the first two years. Electives in computer science allow students the opportunity to specialise in the areas of software systems, networking and expert systems in their final year of study.
