Year One of Program

If you are a student commencing first year of a higher education undergraduate engineering coursework degree from Semester 1 2024, the Engineering Professional Practice (EPP) module is a requirement for graduation.  

Exemptions: 

1. Students who commenced an RMIT higher education undergraduate engineering degree before Semester 1 2024 are exempt from undertaking the EPP module as a requirement for graduation but may opt into the module. 

2. Students who articulate with credits into higher year levels of an RMIT higher education undergraduate engineering degree in Semester 1 2024 and will graduate on or before 2026 are exempt from undertaking the EPP module as a requirement for graduation but may opt into the module. 

The EPP module is ongoing throughout your degree, providing continuous development and requiring you to complete 420 hours of engineering-related activities. The total hours can comprise a combination of work, volunteering, roles in clubs, organisations and events, and professional development activities.   

Completing the EPP module involves logging professional practice activities and providing a reflection response on learning to showcase your sound proficiencies in engineering knowledge, applications of engineering processes, professional skills and values that align with the competencies expected from a professional engineer in the workplace. 

The online dashboard to submit your activities will be available from March 2024 in the School of Engineering BEng Canvas shell here (student log in required)  https://rmit.instructure.com/courses/99581 

Academic integrity 
 

"Academic integrity means acting with the values of honesty, trust, fairness, respect and responsibility in learning, teaching and research." In practical terms, it means developing, and submitting for assessment, your own academic work. 
 

The repercussions for breaking the rules – even accidentally – are serious, from failing an assessment to charges of academic misconduct and exclusion from a program. 
 

Please read the Introduction to Academic Integrity Tutorial and complete the Academic Integrity Awareness Digital Credential before you begin your program.
