The field of engineering concerned with the study and application of electricity and electromagnetism is electrical engineering. Essential to our modern infrastructure and conveniences, electrical engineers employ their skills across a large number of specializations, including the design of household appliances, lighting, building wiring, telecommunication systems, robots, power generation, transmission, distribution, and utilization.

With this qualification, you will have acquired the essential knowledge which underpins both this and other fields of engineering. More importantly, you will have become an electrical engineering technologist.

1. Entry into our on-campus study mode requires applicants to hold:

• A Year 12 Australian Senior Certificate of Education (or equivalent for international students), completed within the past two years, with the following level of achievement in maths:
• WA – WACE scaled score of 50.0 or more.
• ACT – a scaled mark of 125 or more
• NSW – performance Band 2 or above
• QLD – a level of Sound Achievement (S) or above
• SA/NT – a grade of C- or higher or a Subject achievement score of 10 or more
• TAS – an award of Satisfactory Achievement or above
• VIC – a study score of 25 or above
• A minimum ATAR score is not an admissions requirement.

The degree consists of a combination of core units, sub-discipline specific ‘stream’ units, industrial work experience, and a final year project. The program duration is three years full-time. We deliver units over two semesters per year, and you will take 4.5 units per semester. There will be a short mid-semester break and extended breaks between semesters.

Work-Integrated Learning

EIT’s Bachelor of Science programs require students to undertake 240 hours of paid or unpaid professional work-integrated learning.  This can incorporate paid or unpaid internships, site visits, contributing to industry projects, and networking activities.

In undertaking an internship, students will interact with employees and become exposed to organizational policy and culture. You will familiarize yourself with organizational communication procedures, a variety of engineering disciplines, and obtain insight and practical aptitude in projects from the planning phase to completion.

If you already have some work experience in the relevant engineering field, you may apply to have credit granted by completing the associated recognition of prior learning form.
