Now Flinders is leading again with opportunities for selected students to contribute to biologically oriented environmental engineering projects. Engineers working in concert with nature will focus on production industries such as aquaculture, agriculture and livestock production, and on environmental monitoring, management, preservation, remediation and rehabilitation. The Options Computer Systems Engineers create the heart and mind of every piece of computer-based technology we use. They look at the way computer systems are designed and applied and consider everything from the design of digital integrated circuits to the networking and operation of large distributed computer systems. Computer systems have been developed for many applications, including general purpose computers, chemical plant controllers, telecommunication systems, intelligent sensors, medical diagnostic tools, energy management systems, underground exploration probes, and transport controllers.
New applications emerge daily.
They will develop hardware and software co-design techniques and the ability to determine the most appropriate ways of tackling challenging problems. Computer systems engineers have very good career prospects. Already, Flinders students and graduates have made significant contributions to motor vehicle manufacture, electronic design, modern production systems in the food and wine industry, and waste water treatment. Biomedical Engineers are people- oriented. They integrate engineering with medicine and nature to solve health-related problems and enhance our quality of life.
