Approach to learning and assessment

The teaching approach in this program is designed to foster your development as an independent learner so you will be able to extend your capabilities once you graduate. The teaching method includes lectorial, seminar, tutorial, workshop, practical and laboratory sessions, site visits and provision of online materials.

You will be expected to complete all prescribed out-of-class learning activities in preparation of scheduled face-to-face and online classes, and encouraged to extend your learning through additional recommended readings and online activities. Of particular importance is the time spent in practice, laboratory based and work integrated learning activities that will develop your employability skills and capabilities.

Several courses in the program are delivered online, rather than on-campus, and you are likely to find that other courses transition to online delivery as you progress through the program. All courses use Canvas for electronic provision of course material, tutorial problems and/or other relevant documents.

Assessment is designed to give you the opportunity to demonstrate your technical, design, research, and communication capabilities. The assessment you receive will enable your lecturer to provide you with feedback. This will enable you to improve your performance in the future. Various forms of assessment will be used throughout the program since the assessment you undertake will be appropriate to the objectives and student learning outcomes for each course. Assessment may include class tests, quizzes, essays/reports, oral class presentations, group projects, research projects, laboratory projects, practical assignments, reflective journals and timed assessments.

This program incorporates the use of authentic assessment. This is an approach to assessment where you are asked to perform real-world asks to demonstrate the application of knowledge and skills. Authentic assessment requires you to perform tasks that meet the needs of industry so that you are work-ready. Industry feedback plays a key role and will be provided to you throughout the program.

For further information relating to Assessments, please refer to the Assessment and Assessment Flexibility Policy.

Inherent requirements

Work integrated learning

RMIT University is committed to providing you with an education that strongly links formal learning with professional or vocational practice. As a student enrolled in this program you will:

  • Undertake and be assessed on structured activities that allow you to learn, apply and demonstrate your professional or vocational practice
  • Interact with industry and community when undertaking these activities
  • Complete these activities in real work contexts or situations.

Any or all of these aspects of a WIL experience may be in a simulated workplace environment.

The Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical Engineering) (Honours) / Bachelor of Business includes several Work Integrated Learning (WIL) courses. In these WIL courses, you will engage in activities that integrate theoretical learning with practical application in professional or vocational work in a workplace setting (real or simulated) and received feedback from those involved in your industry. In these courses you will interact with organisations (industry, government and community) through discipline relevant projects and work placements. These interactions and the work context provide a distinctive source of feedback to you to assist your learning.

The work integrated learning (WIL) designated courses for this program are:

  • OENG1166 Introduction to Professional Engineering Practice where you will participate in a community partner project.
  • OENG1168 Engineering Capstone Project Part B where you will work under the guidance of a professional engineer who may be from industry or be an academic or research staff member. You will apply your technical knowledge, research, design and professional engineering skills to either discipline specific, or cross disciplinary engineering problems, through robust research and established engineering design processes.
  • BUSM2577 Integrated Perspectives on Business Problems
  • BUSM2582 Business Graduate Folio

This program also includes scaffolded Career Development Learning.

Engineering Professional Practice (EPP) Module

All students commencing an RMIT higher education engineering coursework degree in Melbourne from Semester 1, 2024, are required to complete the Engineering Professional Practice (EPP) module as a condition of graduation.

The EPP module supports your development as a professional engineer by helping you gain relevant experience and build key professional skills. It requires you to complete a minimum of 420 hours of approved engineering-related activities over the course of your degree, supported by a reflective digital portfolio.

Activities may include industry placements, project-based learning, volunteering, professional development, and participation in engineering-related student organisations and events.

If you have completed an engineering work placement prior to joining RMIT, it can be submitted as an EPP activity. If it meets the requirements, it will be counted towards your EPP hours.

One recommended option is to undertake the Professional Engineering Experience course. This formal course provides academic credit towards your degree and can also be used to fulfil your EPP requirement.

The University will support you throughout your studies with opportunities and guidance to help you complete the EPP module.

Upon completion, you will receive a formal certificate, which can strengthen your CV and support your transition into a professional engineering career.

More information will be provided during your studies, including how to select suitable activities and track your progress.
