Diploma
The Diploma of Advanced Manufacturing will equip graduates with the knowledge and skills required to pursue a career within Australia's rapidly growing industry 4.0 and advanced manufacturing sectors. Industry 4.0 refers to the fourth industrial revolution that employs digital technology, automation, and cyber-physical systems to optimise production in the manufacturing environment.
Over the next 10 years traditional workplaces will see significant change due to emerging technologies including Industry 4.0, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Additive Manufacturing, Digital Twinning, Supply Chain 4.0, Robotics and Mechatronics.
