Sustainable engineering
Why study Sustainable engineering?
There is a worldwide need for sustainable infrastructure to ensure future prosperity, but also a critical shortage of skilled professionals for these projects. Our electronic engineering coursework program enhances the knowledge of graduates and integrates learning with industry-based work experience and project opportunities. Study electronic engineering, and specialise in biomedical, communication, electronic systems or optical engineering.
Career opportunities
The need for engineers is increasing due to the demand for sustainable infrastructure and consideration of environmental issues in future developments. Graduates may work on large-scale projects and oil rigs, and with mining companies, water authorities, local governments and the private sector locally and overseas.
