The Master of Professional Engineering (Accelerated) is the ideal two-year full-time degree for those engineers who have previously graduated with an undergraduate engineering degree in a related field seeking recognised accreditation to practice in Australia and overseas.
Please note that the degree to be conferred will be the Master of Professional Engineering.
In the last decade, we have seen the surge of intelligence being used in information engineering for a wide range of domains, such as smart city, advanced manufacturing, automatic driving, 5G and Internet of things, virtual reality and augmented reality, etc.
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.
This major aims to offer a comprehensive program with state-of-the-art intelligent information engineering technologies.
The courses offered span three key areas: telecommunication, electrical and electronic engineering, and computer and software engineering, with an emphasis on intelligent information processing technologies.

Candidates for the Master of Professional Engineering (Accelerated) (Intelligent Information Engineering) complete 96 credit points.
This course has a mandatory work component totalling 420 hours that must be completed as part of the award requirements for the degree. This will usually be undertaken over 12 weeks and will provide an opportunity to gain industry exposure within an engineering environment.
To be eligible for admission, an applicant is required to have:
- an Australian Bachelor of Engineering degree with a 65 percent average, or equivalent qualification, in a related field of engineering to which the student is applying.
For qualifications awarded outside Australia, equivalencies and entry requirements are determined based on the country, institution and qualification.
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.
