Master of Engineering Research
Take your research skills to a whole new level
The aim of the Master of Engineering Research is to train you in high-level engineering research. You will undertake a significant piece of research in your engineering using your specialist knowledge and advanced research techniques to explore the resolution of an engineering problem.
Key areas of research at USQ are:
- Agricultural and Environmental Engineering
- Computational Engineering
- Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering
- Fluid Mechanics, Rheology and Thermofluids
- GIS and Planning
- Mechanics, Materials and Structures
- Mechatronics and control.
Previous research topics have included sport biomechanics for foot arch support, use of a mobile phone as a precision agricultural tool in developing countries and development of novel fibre and polymer reinforced engineered concrete composites.
Career opportunities
The research you conduct over several years will make an important contribution to the development of new knowledge, community development and solutions for industry and government.
It is also a stepping stone to further research degrees, such as an Engineering Doctorate or PhD.
