Industrial and systems engineering focuses on designing and optimising a whole system rather than individual components. 

Industrial and system engineers entirely explore problems to create holistic solutions and processes for complex projects.

In this engineering major, you will learn how to use your analytical and problem-solving skills to make systems more efficient, safe and cost-effective.

You’ll learn knowledge and skills in related engineering fields, including mechanical, mechatronics, industrial, and applied and financial mathematics.

You’ll also develop specialised theoretical knowledge and practical skills in critical areas of mechanical design, manufacturing, system control, operations research, modelling, simulation and optimization of industrial processes.

As a graduate, you’ll be equipped to play an integral role in business and industry, where the continual improvement of complex systems and processes is key to success.

Professional practice

To graduate from this course, you must have completed 480 hours of exposure to professional engineering practice and completed senior first-aid training.

Professional practice can comprise a combination of real-world experiences. 

Examples include paid and voluntary work placements, university-based experience in industrial projects, attending extra-curricular technical lectures and workshops, and industry site visit in Australia and/or overseas.
