Learning Outcomes
Apply systematic engineering methods professionally to design optimised and sustainable solutions to complex and multi-disciplinary engineering problems. Construct and evaluate solutions to engineering problems by selecting and applying theoretical principles and methods from the underpinning physical, mathematical and information sciences, and broader transdisciplinary knowledge. Demonstrate advanced technical knowledge at the leading edge of the discipline and the application of appropriate tools in at least one field of engineering specialisation. Compare current developments and emerging trends in at least one field of engineering specialisation. Understand the contextual factors that influence professional engineering practice, such as interpersonal, organizational, institutional, technological, physical, environmental, political and societal factors, and assess the potential societal, cultural, health, legal and environmental impact of engineering activities. Communicate and incorporate perspectives across disciplines effectively with colleagues, other engineering professionals and the broader community employing a range of communication media and tools. Engage in independent research at the leading edge of the discipline, via the completion of multiple individual research projects, through the application and synthesis of research-based knowledge and research methods. Engage responsibly in critical reflection on self-competence to practice ethically and independent learning to continue practicing at the forefront of the discipline. Work effectively and proactively within cross-cultural, multi-disciplinary teams, demonstrating autonomy, ethical conduct, well-developed judgement, adaptability and responsibility to achieve engineering outcomes at a high standard.
