What is Systems Engineering?

With its emphasis on a systems approach, Engineering undergraduate study at the Australian National University is unique within Australia, using a model similar to top European and US Engineering schools. The ANU BE is a world class Engineering degree program staffed by top quality academics with a wide range of international experience. ANU Engineering graduates are of the highest quality and eagerly sought by employers. They are employed in a wide range of occupations and industries worldwide. The BE degree program is accredited by the Institution of Engineers Australia (IEAust) and integrates selected areas of electrical and mechanical engineering with computer systems and engineering management in a number of discipline majors to produce well-rounded and multi-skilled engineering professionals. Another unique feature of ANU engineering degrees is that a number of courses and projects are taught in conjunction with staff from serveral of the Research Schools in ANU’s famous Institute of Advanced Studies.

From design engineers to telecommunications research - from development engineers in the biomedical industry to management consultants - from computational engineers to manufacturing process managers. The list goes on, but the message is the same - ANU graduates are true engineers, broad in technical ability and skills, flexible and able to meet new challenges in a rapidly changing technological environment.

The Department of Engineering teaches courses into the Bachelor of Engineering degree programs and its associated combined course programs. The Department provides a broadly-based undergraduate engineering curriculum with a wide range of discipline majors and includes professional development courses such as management, accounting and law which encourages the development of communication and team work skills. The curriculum prepares students for an engineering career and takes into account the business, social and environmental context. The Department of Engineering integrates the traditional disciplines of electrical and mechanical engineering. Students may study telecommunications and information technology, instrumentation and control, materials engineering, manufacturing systems, mechatronics, electronics, robotics and automation, sustainable energy systems, environmental engineering and engineering economics and management.
