This course is offered in collaboration with the Australian Maritime College at the University of Tasmania in Launceston, Tasmania. Ocean engineers are involved in the design of some of the largest, most complex, and most expensive structures produced by humankind. These include offshore structures such as oil and gas platforms or subsea pipelines, as well as the wide range of infrastructure associated with the ports and harbour facilities and submersible vehicles required to service them.
This course information may be updated and amended immediately prior to semester. To ensure you have the correct outline, please check it again at the beginning of semester. In particular please check the course requirements and the unit and unit set offerings, as these differ according to course delivery location.
Students will be required to undertake a minimum of 12 weeks relevant industry work experience.
Work experience units will normally be undertaken during a vacation period.
This course has been Accredited by: Engineers Australia.
Academic admission standard for the following entry pathways:
All students are required to have WACE Mathematics 3C/3D or Mathematics: Specialist 3C/3D, with equivalents considered. It is desirable that all students have WACE Physics 3A/3B or WACE Engineering Studies 3A/3B, with equivalents considered.
Portfolio pathway applications are not accepted for this course.
Bunbury applicants please note: There is an option to study up to eight foundation units from this degree at ECU's South West (Bunbury) campus. After completing these eight units, Bunbury students will need to attend ECU's Joondalup campus to complete the rest of their course. The entire program can also be studied at ECU's Joondalup campus.
The first two years of this course are delivered at the Joondalup Campus and the final two years are delivered at the Australian Maritime College in Launceston, Tasmania. Students will be required to relocate to Launceston for this portion of the course.
Students are required to complete 32 units and a 12-week approved practicum.
