It is expected that students will have completed at least the first year of their master program before undertaking this work experience. However, if there is the opportunity to complete aspects of work experience at an earlier stage of their study, students may contact the Unit Coordinator and request that this requirement is completed earlier.
This unit consists of a minimum of 12 weeks of work experience in a field of work related to the area studied in engineering (i.e. Chemical, Civil and structural, Electrical and Electronics, Mechanical). Work experience would normally be either on-site or in an office, under the supervision of an engineer. The work experience on this unit can be carried out at any time of the year, including the holiday breaks. This unit does not contribute any credit points toward the completion of the degree, but it is a hurdle requirement of the courses HENG01, SENG01, SENGG1 and it must be completed satisfactorily.
