AMME5010: Major Industrial Project
2024 unit information
Students spend 6 months at an industrial placement working on a major engineering project relevant to their engineering stream. This is a 24 credit point unit, which may be undertaken as an alternative to ENGG5217 Practical Experience, AMME5020/5021 Capstone Project A and B and 12cp of specialist electives. This unit of study gives students experience in carrying out a major project within an industrial environment, and in preparing and presenting detailed technical reports (both oral and written) on their work. The project is carried out under joint University/industry supervision, with the student essentially being engaged full-time on the project at the industrial site.

Important enrolment information
Departmental permission requirements
If you see the ‘Departmental Permission’ tag below a session, it means you need faculty or school approval to enrol. This may be because it’s an advanced unit, clinical placement, offshore unit, internship or there are limited places available.
You will be prompted to apply for departmental permission when you select this unit in Sydney Student.
Read our information on departmental permission.
Additional advice
"This unit requires departmental permission which will be approved for students who have obtained an ESIPS placement. Refer to Canvas (https://canvas.sydney.edu.au/courses/2806/pages/esips-eligibility-criteria-and-application-process) for information on how to apply for ESIPS. Please include your completed form in your permission request for review by the Faculty. AMME5010 counts in place of ENGG5217 and the Capstone or Dissertation units in the Master of Professional Engineering and Master of Professional Engineering (Accelerated)."
