About this program

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Electrical and Electronic Engineering) at Victoria University prepares students for professional work by focusing on both theoretical and practical aspects of engineering. Across four years of full-time study in Melbourne, students learn about circuit theory, digital systems, electromagnetics, control systems, telecommunications, and sustainable energy solutions. This course structures learning through a series of units, each carrying credit points that count towards the total required for graduation.

Over the duration of the degree, students progress from foundational science and mathematics units to advanced topics like embedded systems and power engineering. The final year often includes a capstone project, where students propose, design, and implement an engineering solution, simulating real-world professional scenarios. Work-integrated learning is a key feature, allowing students to gain experience with Australian employers—an important step for those looking for local industry links.

This honours degree is recognised under the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) and can help graduates meet the academic requirements for professional accreditation. The course suits those interested in how technology powers and connects the modern world, including problem-solvers who enjoy working with technology and are considering careers in energy supply, automation, or electronics. Students can work up to 48 hours per fortnight while studying and may be eligible for the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) after completing the degree. For full details and the most up-to-date information, always confirm on the official university page.
