Purpose of the Program

The Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering) (Honours) is designed to develop you as a highly employable graduate with the knowledge and skills essential for a professional career in electronic, communication, computer and network engineering. The program prepares you upon graduation to be ready to take up employment in electronic, communication, computer and network engineering and related industries. The related industries include the power generation and distribution, aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, biomedical, resource, defence, and primary industries.

An active approach is taken to learning, with activities and experiences designed to foster your development as an independent learner so you will be able to extend your capabilities once you graduate.

As a graduate, you will be well qualified for roles in electronic design, embedded systems, communication and network systems and firmware development. As an integral part of our program, you will gain substantial work experiences while still studying in this program. In particular, you will undertake an industry-sponsored design project in your final year as part of our OENG1183 Engineering Capstone Project Part A and OENG1185 Engineering Capstone Project Part B in which you will conduct an independent research & development project that can be analytical, experimental, design or computational in nature (or some combination of these). You will also work as an intern in one of our industry partners as part of OENG1198 Professional Engineering Experience.

The Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering) (Honours) is primarily delivered in face-to-face and blended learning modes at the South Saigon Campus.
