What is engineering?

The field of engineering will provide you with an occupation which has extremely wide reach. While it is a broad field, it typically falls under four main disciplines - chemical, civil, electrical and mechanical engineering.When undertaking a study in this field you will develop industry knowledge and technical skills, leaving with the ability to critically think and problem solve in complex environments.

In this field of study, you will learn about a diverse range of specialised areas including:

What are my course options?

Vocational Education and Training (VET)

VET courses have a strong focus on practical teaching methods which will provide you with the required skills and knowledge to pursue support roles as an engineering associate or engineering technologist. Common subject areas offered include fabrication and welding, manufacturing and mechanical engineering.
