Masters (Coursework)
If you are a professional engineer with a 4-year bachelor's degree in any engineering discipline, this program will change the course of your career.
You will study a wide range of subjects relevant to the development and procurement of maritime engineering systems. Specialisations include Naval Engineering, Maritime Technology Management and Maritime Design. Each of these programs are aimed at engineering professionals already in the workforce, but with limited exposure to the maritime engineering sector.
Our graduates secure employment in advanced technical and management roles in maritime engineering. All programs lead to greater employment and higher degree study opportunities through industry relevant research projects.
Our specialist coursework is designed by experienced maritime engineers and researchers. Delivered through interactive online study resources, this course provides a flexible learning mode for students who wish to continue working while studying. In addition, some units are also available for on-campus study.
Postgraduate Specialisations
Master of Engineering (Maritime Design)
Progress your career into specialist areas of maritime engineering including naval architecture, fluid mechanics and marine and offshore systems.
