Master of Engineering Science (Electrical and Electronic Engineering)

If you want to become a Professional Electrical and Electronic Engineer, and have a 3 year engineering degree but no work experience, USQ’s Master of Engineering Science (Electrical and Electronic Engineering) will get you there.

Throughout the degree there is an emphasis on practical experience and preparing you thoroughly for the engineering profession. In addition to the hands-on laboratory sessions and 60 days industry experience, you will complete a research project and dissertation applying all your formal knowledge to a real world problem. Whether this is the exploration of signalling devices for road and rail or the most efficient transmission of power, your project will provide insight to the profession of an Electrical and Electronic Engineer.

The research project and dissertation can also be a stepping stone to further research degrees, such as PhD.

Career outcomes

As an electrical and electronic engineering graduate your career pathway could be in mining, manufacturing, telecommunications, transport, biomedicine, robotics, power industry or the defence services.

Professional recognition

Through the Master of Engineering Science (Electrical and Electronic Engineering), you will gain the eligibility to apply for graduate membership as a Professional Engineer with Engineers Australia. You will also have the opportunity to work overseas, with your accreditation recognised in the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Canada, Ireland, Hong Kong, New Zealand and South Africa.
