The Master of Professional Engineering (Specialisation) is designed to inspire the next generation of innovative professional engineers. Whether you want to transition into a new specialisation, or update your qualification to meet Australian industry requirements, this postgraduate course will provide you with the knowledge and skills to reach your career goals in this evolving industry.
In this practical course, you will put theory into practice through a variety of ways. You will test your skills in hands-on laboratory classes, attend exciting field trips around the state, and hear from industry guest lecturers.
In your final year of study, you will undertake a research project within your chosen specialisation, where you will design, development, prototype test, and implement your designs with the support of your peers and individual supervisor. You’ll graduate with job-ready skills and the ability to improve society in areas such as electricity, construction, mechanics, and design.
As a graduate of the Renewable Energy and Electrical Power specialisation, you’ll be equipped with a deep understanding of power system planning, energy economics and key features of the energy system regulatory environment providing you with critical skills to make a positive contribution to climate change while ensuring developing nations are able to meet the energy needs of their growing populations.
We work closely with the state’s major energy provider, Hydro Tasmania and their energy consulting firm Entura to help provide clean renewable energy throughout Tasmania, Australia, the Indian subcontinent, South East Asia, and the South Pacific.
Tasmania is the only state in Australia to produce 100% of its energy from renewable sources with renewable energy being one of Tasmania’s leading exports meaning you will not only be exposed to the societal benefits but also the fiscal benefits created through the production of renewable energy and electrical power.
