See the table Sub-majors and their availability Engineering Practice Program The Engineering Practice Program supports and assesses student learning in workplace and community environments. Its objectives are to prepare students for engineering work experience, to support them during that experience, and to assist them in maximising learning. The program also supports the integration of this experiential learning with the theoretical and practical aspects of the academic curriculum. A fundamental objective is to develop the ability to learn actively in a wide variety of modes and contexts, and to critique and contribute to those learning environments on a lifelong basis. The program is administered through a series of subjects, offered in flexible mode.
Students enrol in the program as a whole and are guided through the respective modules.
Students are ultimately responsible for their progression through the program. Minimum time in the workplace to satisfy each engineering internship subject is 22 weeks. Students are encouraged to undertake additional work experience of a high standard. Each student undertakes a Capstone Project, supervised by a member of academic staff and designed to consolidate and integrate learning in all aspects of the program. Industry-linked projects, under joint supervision, are strongly encouraged.
