Title of the Programme
The programme shall be master of engineering in electromechanical engineering MEng. (EE)
Background
The world of electromechanical engineering encompasses development, design, manufacturing, testing and control of tools, machines, vehicles and other electrical or mechanical systems, as well as research on these topics. The Master of Engineering in Electromechanical Engineering is a two-year degree programme intended to prepare students for a future technical leadership role in industry. The programme offers in-depth training in all aspects of electromechanical engineering and its economic and social implications based on a profound scientific basis.
Justification
Electromechanical engineering is a collection of engineering disciplines around the themes motion, force and energy. The world of electromechanical engineering encompasses development, design, manufacturing, testing and control of tools, machines, vehicles and other electrical or mechanical systems, as well as research on these topics. Scientific and technological efficiency is key in the Master of Engineering in Electromechanical Engineering. It’s an academic programme, which implies a close link with scientific research in the related fields. The programme offers a balance between scientific and technological knowledge, skills that are useful for both professional use and scientific research.
The targeted group includes holders of:
Applicants must have completed a UTS recognized bachelor’s degree, or an equivalent or higher qualification, or submitted other evidence of general and professional qualifications that demonstrates potential to pursue graduate studies. Bachelor’s in Engineering and other related Science and Technology fields.It is a requirement that the bachelor’s degree be in engineering or the natural and physical sciences, with no more than 25 per cent of subjects failed.
General Objectives
The Programme consists of a general module, main subject modules, elective courses and a dissertation. The general module contains courses on all subjects related to Electromechanical Engineering, ranging from electrical drives over machine manufacturing to management skills.
Students can choose one out of five main subject modules with specialist courses on different subjects of interest. The main subject Electrical Power Engineering handles all aspects of generation, distribution and use of electrical energy, with special attention to electrical machines and drives and electrical power systems.
Through elective courses students broaden their knowledge and skills in technical and non-technical subjects. The Master Dissertation is a final step in the learning process. It aims at training the ability to independently perform scientific research.
Specific Objectives
At the end of this programs students will be able to:
This program is for students who are interested in creating technology solutions not only for today, but for the future. Students are prepared to become engineering leaders through fundamental and hands-on courses in wireless networks, machine learning, data analytics, robotics, energy systems, internet of things, and software engineering. Mechanical design and energy conversion are the cornerstones of this Programme. Mechanical design begins with an idea, which is then shaped into a graphical design and executed into a finished product through a choice of materials, simulation, and production techniques. Energy conversion comprises all aspects of energy efficiency in this process.
Duration of the Programme:
This course is offered on a Two-year (Four semesters), full-time or online basis for students with a UTS-recognised bachelor’s degree in engineering or the natural and physical sciences.
