On successful completion, students will qualify to proceed with the formal master program. Failure to attain a satisfactory standard in the qualifying units will render a student ineligible for re-enrolment inthe master program.

Standard entry requirements

Specifically, applicants require a recognised bachelor of engineering degree at honours level. Applications will be considered from other well qualified graduates who are able to present acceptable evidence of their ability to undertake research projects. In such cases, admission may be subject to successful completion of a prescribed qualifying program.
