engineering courses – all types


Engineering is often known as Applied science. Courses at undergrad bachelor, postgraduate master, PhD doctorate research degree levels in Australian universities are listed below. Non-Engineering subject areas here.

  • Besides ATAR, what are the prerequisite HSC subjects?
  • Engineering courses cover all subjects related to developing, providing and maintaining  infrastructure, products and services any developing country needs  – from research to manufacturing products to building transport channels.      

  • An Engineering degree  paves the way to employment as Professional Engineer in Electrical or Electronic Engineering, Computer or Software Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Automation & Robotic Engineering, Mechatronics, Civil and structural Engineering, Marine Engineering and Mechanical Engineering.
  • You get to study the life cycle of product, from conception and design to creation.  Applied Science and mathematics are typically core topics 

If you are unsuccessful in finding a specific branch of Engineering (Eg. Coastal Engineering, Maritime Engineering, Aerospace, Medical engineering, Petroleum Engineering, Geo technical engineering etc ),  please visit  links below and follow through to see what’s  offered.

Typical admission requirements for Engineering :

  • Physics and/or Chemistry, Mathematics. English proficiency
