Industrial Control and Automation Engineering

This Major is archived with an end date of 22/06/2023

Overview

The focus of Industrial Control Engineering (ICE) major is to deliver the suitable and in-depth theoretical knowledge and practical skills of industrial control systems required for graduate students to work with process and manufacturing industry. The course offers a broad range of industrial control engineering components such as control system theory, process control, PLC systems, embedded systems, micro controller and data communication, SCADA and instrumentation systems, as well as foundations of data science. The major is more industry-oriented to deliver the practical understanding and knowledge suitable for effective design, prototyping, and controlling the industrial control systems applied for various industry sectors. By the completion of this course, graduates will have gained an in-depth understanding of industrial control engineering with practical hands-on skills applied for a spectrum of research and industry-related activities.

Professional outcomes

Professional recognition

Professional accreditation

Accreditation from Engineers Australia (EA) will be sought for the Bachelor of Engineering Honours in 2023.

EA is the professional body for Engineers in Australia and is also the accrediting body for Engineering degrees within Australia. Graduates from an accredited degree are eligible for EA membership, which is recognised worldwide and provides our graduates with strong employment pathways. The course level outcomes are aligned with the EA Stage 1 Competencies, making the course eligible for accreditation.
