The Master of Engineering (Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering) at RMIT University in Melbourne offers advanced study in automation, control systems, artificial intelligence, sensor technologies, and electromechanical engineering. The course covers topics like robotic system design, motion control, real-time programming, intelligent automation, and embedded system integration. Students get hands-on experience through laboratories, simulation projects, and the use of modern equipment and software standard in Australian industry.
This master’s degree is structured across two years of full-time study and includes a mix of core and elective units. Each unit of study is assigned credit points, contributing toward the total required for graduation according to Australian postgraduate frameworks. Students often work on a capstone project or research thesis, applying their skills to real-world engineering challenges—frequently in partnership with local companies and research centres in Melbourne.
Work-integrated learning is a key part of the experience, with opportunities for professional placements in manufacturing, automation, and technology sectors. These placements help students apply engineering theory in practical settings and connect with employers in Victoria and beyond. The course is suited to those with an undergraduate degree in engineering or a closely related field who are looking to build specialised expertise and leadership potential in robotics and mechatronics.
Graduates gain skills in system modelling, machine intelligence, teamwork, communication, and project management. International students should confirm English requirements and check the CRICOS register for up-to-date details. While enrolled, students on a Student visa can usually work up to 48 hours per fortnight, and after graduation, may be eligible for the Australian Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) to gain professional experience.
Australian industries, especially those in Melbourne, invest in robotics and manufacturing automation and actively recruit skilled graduates in these fields.
It typically takes 2 years, with intakes in Semester 1 (Feb/Mar), Semester 2 (Jul).
Tuition is around A$99,840 total. Fees change yearly — confirm with an advisor.
