Telecommunications engineers design, construct, maintain and upgrade telecommunications and data networks. The work of these engineers underpins modern communications including the Internet, mobile telephones, telephony and broadband networks, and international communications by satellite and optical fibre. Telecommunications Engineering students receive an education based in part on radio and optical communications technologies, and multimedia. Employment opportunities are available in telecommunications, Internet and related areas such as broadcasting and remote sensing. Telecommunications engineers also have expertise in the areas of network planning, distributed systems and databases, resource management, modelling and simulation, electronic and computer systems.
A combined degree for Telecommunications Engineering is available with the Bachelor of Arts (stream code 226).
The Bachelor of Arts (BA) is globally accepted as the program which provides most flexibility in study choices for students. The BA suits students who are interested in the big picture, finding answers to burning questions, understanding human behaviours, cultures and history, and exploring new or existing areas of study. Students specialise in areas of their choice by taking a 'major' (from one of 25 areas) and potentially a 'minor' (from a range of areas). This study plan gives students depth of knowledge and skills in a specialised field, while having breadth of understanding in other areas. Regardless of their specialisation, all BA students build skills that are highly valued by a variety of employers, such as the ability to find creative solutions to problems, researching and analysing information, the capacity for lifelong learning, and effectively communicating at many levels. These attributes mean students can adapt to different challenges that they might face in their future careers, studies and daily lives.
