Engineering (Electrical and Electronic)
Overview
The Master of Engineering (Electrical and Electronic) reflects Flinders University’s strength over many years in instrumentation, control systems and robotics, including computer vision, renewable energy systems and electronics for medical devices. This degree will allow you to be a part of the next generation of electrical and electronic technology professionals.
Designing and developing electrical and electronic devices is the responsibility of professional engineers, who are playing an increasingly important role in the development of smart infrastructure for autonomous automotive vehicles, aerospace and maritime engineering; bioinstrumentation; intelligent robotics; environment monitoring, smart cities and a low-carbon economy.
Flinders specialises in research training for engineers, and the course offers you a choice of research projects in intelligent control, autonomous vehicles, robotics, image/signal processing, computer vision and robotics, renewable energy and bioinstrumentation. Staff are directly involved on industry projects involving unmanned underwater vehicles, video tracking, bioinstrumentation and environmental sensors.

Professional accreditation/recognition
All our Bachelor of Engineering and Master of Engineering degrees are accredited by Engineers Australia at the level of professional engineer. Professional engineering courses accredited by Engineers Australia are recognised internationally under the Washington Accord. Graduates meet the academic requirements for attaining chartered professional engineering status.
What you will study
The program provides a balance of advanced theoretical knowledge and associated project work. As well as core topics in electrical and electronic engineering students choose one of three areas of further specialisation:
- Advanced electrical engineering,
- Advanced electronic engineering, or
- Robotics and computer vision.
Study areas include areas such as systems engineering; engineering management; control systems; electrical and electronic circuits and machines; sensors and actuators; signal processing; engineering management and innovation; and a research project undertaken as part of an active research team. Students also spend time in industry practising what they have learnt.
High achieving graduates from this program can apply to continue to do a PhD.
The course includes a work experience component where you will get hands-on industry experience in electronics engineering practice.

Entry requirements
Applicants must normally hold a Bachelor of Engineering, Bachelor of Engineering Technology, Bachelor of Engineering Science or equivalent overseas qualification in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) or a closely related discipline. Alternatively, students can progress through Flinders University’s Graduate Diploma in Engineering Science (EEE major).
Students without such a qualification should apply for the Master of Engineering Science (Electrical and Electronic) or the Graduate Diploma in Engineering Science (EEE major) and can transfer into the Master of Engineering after completing one year of study.
Students who hold a Washington Accord accredited Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical and Electronic) (Honours) may receive up to one-year’s credit in the degree.
“Technology is expanding at an enormous speed. Electrical engineers are needed in air craft design, medical equipment you name it. Can you think of anything which doesn’t need electronics? The key focus is that first of all you understand how those systems work, you learn how to design them and how to integrate them with each other. That’s part of what the students need to do in that degree.”
Dr. Nasser Asgari, Director of Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
