If you are a qualified engineer seeking to move into a management role or to specialise or update your skills, the Master of Engineering will build on your engineering undergraduate degree.
This program will allow you to build on your existing engineering undergraduate degree by developing specialised technical knowledge in information engineering.
The major in intelligent information engineering builds on foundations in mathematics, electrical engineering and basic computer and software engineering principles, and focuses on teaching students the latest technologies in information engineering such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI), video and speech recognition, multimedia and sensory signal processing.
Commonwealth Supported Places
Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP)* are available for postgraduate study for eligible domestic students. This means that your course fees are subsidised by the Australian Government and you pay a student contribution amount (SCA). CSPs are limited in number and are allocated based on academic merit.
*Some available streams, subject to availability.

To meet requirements for the Master of Engineering (Intelligent Information Engineering) a candidate will complete 72 credit points (cp) including 36cp of specialist units and a minimum 12cp project. Candidates who have received a 24cp reduction in volume of learning, must complete 48 credit points (cp) including 12cp of core units, 24cp of specialist units and a 12cp project.
To be eligible for admission, an applicant is required to have:
Units completed in the graduate diploma/graduate certificate can be credited to the master's degree.
For qualifications awarded outside Australia, equivalencies and entry requirements are determined based on the country, institution and qualification.
Fast-track your master's
If you have the equivalent of an Australian Bachelor of Engineering degree with a distinction average (75 percent) in the same area of your discipline, you may be eligible for a Reduced Volume of Learning (RVL) of up to 24 credit points or .5 years/1 semester.
Applying for RVL/Credit:
To be assessed for RVL/Credit, you are required to indicate in your application for admission that you would like to apply for credit. You will then receive an email with instructions on how to submit your application for credit. If you receive an offer of admission, the outcome of your credit application will be included in your letter of offer. For information on RVL and degree requirements visit CUSP.
The academic requirements that are displayed are applicable to currently available courses only, and are updated annually in October and may be changed without notice.
Graduate students will be equipped with knowledge of advanced technologies, such as AI, deep learning, information/signal processing and embedded systems, hence be capable to pursue the career in a wide range of engineering domains, as well as IT companies like Google and Facebook, who are eagerly looking for talents in such areas.
