This program is tailored for individuals who have completed a four-year Engineering bachelor's degree in a relevant field that lacks Engineers Australia accreditation.
The curriculum is not intended for those holding an Engineers Australia-accredited four-year degree in the same field. Graduates with EA-accredited qualifications who wish to pursue advanced studies in their discipline should explore the Master of Philosophy or Master of Engineering Management programs instead.
Modern power systems represent an evolving engineering specialization shaped by the swift expansion of renewable energy, power electronics, and energy storage solutions. This transformation has been propelled by breakthroughs in digital technology and connectivity, giving rise to intelligent grids and localized power networks.
This specialization tackles contemporary issues in electricity production, transmission, and distribution. It provides comprehensive coverage of innovative technologies including smart grids and decentralized power generation.
Throughout the program, you'll complete a minimum of 12 weeks gaining hands-on engineering experience while maintaining an official logbook to document your professional development. Your capstone project will offer opportunities to deeply examine and implement cutting-edge power system technologies.
Applicants require a 4-year Engineering degree from a recognised institution in the same discipline of study. Students who have completed the Graduate Diploma of Professional Engineering degree at Curtin will be considered to have met the above course requirement.
