Why study professional engineering at Curtin?
This course is for those who hold a four-year engineering degree in a related discipline that is not accredited by Engineers Australia. It helps you build technical knowledge, develop industry-ready skills and meet the competencies needed for professional practice in your chosen field.
Throughout the course, you’ll complete at least 12 weeks of engineering work experience and a final-year research or design project. If you already hold an Engineers Australia-accredited degree in the same discipline, consider applying for Curtin’s Master of Philosophy or Master of Engineering Management instead.
