The quality of engineering in Australia has always been recognized worldwide, and in recent years there has been a rapid growth in Asian students in engineering schools. Depending on the specific specialty engaged in, engineers can be divided into numerous disciplines, such as aeronautical and astronautical engineering, agricultural engineering, biomedical engineering, construction machinery and equipment engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, coastal and oceanic engineering, environmental engineering, industrial engineering, marine engineering, materials engineering, mechanical and manufacturing engineering, minerals and metallurgical engineering, mining engineering, resources engineering, and risk engineering.
86 for everyone to introduce the career planning of engineering majors: in Australia, undergraduate students studying engineering majors can apply to become student members of IEAUS (Student Member). Upon graduation, students can become Graduate Members. Graduates of undergraduate engineering programs can become full members of IEAUST (MIEAUST-Member of IEAUST) after working in engineering for about 4 years after graduation (or 2 years if they have performed exceptionally well in a supervisory position). At this point, the member can enter different disciplines for further study and research. After becoming a MIEAUST and gaining more work experience, a member can become a Fellow-FIEAUST, the highest rank in the association. The MIEAUST is then qualified to mentor junior student members and graduate members in the Association. Membership of Engineers Australia leads to a license to practice as a Royal Engineer in Australia. This license is recognized worldwide. With an Engineers Australia license, you can practise as an engineer anywhere in the world.
In Australia, the profession of engineer has always been a 60-point profession in the list of Australian migrant occupations, which has a great advantage in migration, and the starting salary of the work is also relatively high. All Australian universities offer courses in engineering, and different universities have their own strengths in engineering. The following 86 will lead you closer to several engineering majors:
1. Civil Engineering
Civil engineers are mainly responsible for how to build safe, economical and harmonious buildings with the surrounding environment. Civil engineers can be divided into main civil engineers, engineering civil engineers, structural engineers, transportation engineers or water supply and distribution system engineers. Architectural engineering graduates earn a starting salary of A$5-9.
Recommended schools: University of Adelaide, Monash University.
Advantage: the college entrance examination results reach the local line, the University of Adelaide can be directly admitted to read the first-year course. Monash University graduates were selected by the New York Times as the most favored graduates of employers.
2. Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering graduates have a broad employment prospects, can be in the following areas of in-depth development or application: thermal science, dynamics, solid mechanics, fluid mechanics and biomechanics, design and manufacturing, sensing, control and robotics, computational/simulation engineering.
Recommended schools: University of Western Australia, Curtin University.
Strengths: With the advantage of WA's geographical location, the employment rate of graduates is extremely high, and graduates can receive offers from several employers. local mining companies have a huge demand for graduates, and there is a lot of room for employment environment and space.
3. Biomedical Engineering
In regulatory and state agencies, medical institutions (clinical research, highly specialized medical care, management), in the use of medical devices, sales and service, research institutes, universities (basic research, teaching), international pharmaceutical, health care companies (management, research and development). In collaboration with private institutions and physicians, graduates can directly participate in highly specialized medical care and solve problems in basic clinical research, and the devices and systems developed by them play an important role in the observation, diagnosis, treatment, and alleviation of diseases.
Recommended schools: Flinders University, University of New South Wales.
Strengths: Flinders University has strong research strength in bioengineering, as well as a national and international reputation for research in medicine, clinical medicine, nursing, and midwifery. The University of New South Wales is a 5-star university and one of the top 8 universities in the world. The Faculty of Engineering at UNSW is the largest engineering school in Australia, offering a wide range of engineering programs, with medical engineering being the most famous.
4. Aeronautical Engineering
Aeronautical Engineering is a comprehensive technical discipline that applies a variety of scientific and engineering theories to the realization of intra-atmospheric flight and the practice of aeronautical engineering. Aeronautics is the theoretical basis for human aviation activities, and its content includes various scientific knowledge involved in aircraft research, design, manufacturing, testing, flight, maintenance use and management, etc. Graduates can become avionics engineers recognized by the industry.
Recommended schools: The University of Queensland, RMIT University.
