Master of Engineering (Advanced) in Aerospace Engineering
M.E.A AeEn
|
| Location: | North Terrace Campus |
| Duration: | 2 years
(full-time or
part-time equivalent)
|
| Degree/Award: | Masters by Coursework |
Aerospace Engineering concerns the development and use of new technologies and materials that are relevant to any high-tech industries including the aerospace industry. Coursework covers aerospace engineering courses such as high-tech materials, aeronautics, space science and astrophysics and space vehicle design, aerospace propulsion, hypersonic aerodynamics, astrophysics and guidance and control.
Well-suited to graduates wanting more than the one year masters engineering program, this program gives the option of studying technical courses at an advanced level and the opportunity to engage in a research project.
A 48-unit program, students will complete the requirements for the Masters of Engineering, with additional study comprising 12 units of more advanced technical coursework. A project to the value of 12 units introduces candidates to research.
Intending students should consult the program coordinator early in the year in which they plan to study to check when particular courses or projects will be available.
The Master of Engineering (Advanced) program is a 48 unit program, suitable for engineering graduates with Honours who wish to pursue further studies, as well as engineers with relevant work experience (up to 12 additional units of enabling courses may be required, depending on the exact nature of the applicant's qualifications - this may extend study by one semester). The program includes 9 units of core courses designed to provide generic skills in statistics, numerical analysis and project management, which are applicable across all fields of engineering. The remaining 39 units consist of a 12 unit research project (in the second year of the program) and 27 units of discipline specific courses that provide additional technical material at a level beyond that of a first engineering degree. Depending on which of the latter courses are selected, candidates will be able to either explore a sub-discipline at some depth or acquire further knowledge across a broad front.
