Master of Engineering

Deakin University, Melbourne/Geelong, VIC, Australia

About this program

Deakin's Master of Engineering is aimed at engineering graduates looking to deepen technical specialisation or pivot into a growth area. Offerings have included streams in areas like advanced manufacturing, renewable energy, and civil/structural engineering, reflecting the university's Waurn Ponds research strengths (including the Carbon Nexus carbon-fibre facility and Deakin's broader materials and manufacturing research groups). It's a coursework master's rather than a research degree, though most streams include a substantial engineering project unit.

Entry generally expects a relevant engineering bachelor's degree; students without one may be directed toward a longer pathway with additional foundation units. The degree suits engineers wanting formal postgraduate specialisation for career progression, plus a share of international students using it as a bridge toward Engineers Australia's Chartered status requirements.
