Why Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical) (Honours)?
The work of electrical engineers shapes every aspect of modern life – from medical devices to smartphones and the grids that power our cities.
As more industries look to tap into the power of AI and digital technologies to get ahead, electrical and electronic engineers have never been more in demand.
Through our Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical) (Honours), you’ll learn how to safely design, build and maintain a wide range of electrical, electronic and electro-mechanical systems, equipment and components.
Overview
Our degree equips you with a strong foundation in electrical and electronic engineering knowledge. You’ll develop technical and professional skills to graduate career ready.
You will engage in courses designed to equip you with advanced practical abilities and understanding of working safely with diverse electrical circuits, digital systems, control systems, electrical machines, and power systems. In your final year you’ll undertake a major honours research project, with industry representatives or academic researchers acting as your clients.
Developed with a hands-on approach, you’ll hone your creativity and engineering skillset through design projects, practical workshops, and up to 12 weeks of professional work placements in industry. You’ll graduate prepared for a wide range of specialist engineering careers focused on designing and maintaining electronically powered systems. You could design micro electrical components, small-scale consumer products, or large scale infrastructure and machinery.
Key features
Develop a foundation in electrical, electronic engineering theory and principles. - Study electrical and electro-mechanical-focused courses.
- Complete a common first-year in engineering – change your specialisation and receive credit for completed courses.
- Apply your skills on real-world projects with up to 12 weeks in a professional industry placement.
- Complete a major honours research and industry-focused project in your final year.
What you'll learn
Our Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical) (Honours) provides a solid grounding in the knowledge, principles, technical and professional skills required to practice as a qualified electrical and electronic engineer.
In your first year, you’ll develop a strong, general foundation in engineering principles before moving into electrical and electronic focused courses in second year.
As you progress, you’ll also explore areas of interest through a range of elective courses, such as:
- Machine learning and vision systems
- Microcontroller interfacing and applications
- Radio frequency (RF) engineering
- Renewable and distributed power generation
- Robotics and automation
- Telecommunication system security.
Throughout, you’ll develop your creativity and technical skillset through substantial design projects and practicals.
In your final year, you’ll undertake a major honours research project, with industry representatives or academic researchers acting as your clients.
As part of your studies, you’ll also complete up to 12 weeks of professional work placements. These placements provide an opportunity for you to apply the skills and knowledge you've acquired throughout your degree in real workplace settings.
Assessments for this degree include reports, case studies, presentations, essays and assignments, online quizzes, examinations, industry-relevant research projects, lab/practical team-based projects, e-portfolios and reflective practice.
You’ll be able to complete majority of first year common courses and second year courses at either our Adelaide City or Mawson Lakes Campus with some potential cross-campus study required. Throughout your degree, you’ll gain access to cutting-edge facilities across both campus locations to enhance your overall learning experience.

Career outcomes
Recognised as one of the broadest areas of engineering, electrical and electronic engineers are employed by a wide range of traditional and emerging industries.
You could design and implement microgrid technologies, enabling more efficient, reliable electricity generation and distribution in remote areas. Maybe you’ll help a city upgrade its infrastructure to provide fast-charging stations for electric vehicles. Or perhaps you’ll lead efforts in advanced manufacturing, scaling automation technologies for use in large industries.
Whatever your area of interest, career paths are available in a wide range of sectors including:
- Aerospace and defence
- Automotive
- Biomedical technology
- Consulting and engineering services
- Consumer electronics
- Electronics manufacturing
- Medical device manufacturing
- Power generation, transmission, and distribution
- Renewable energy and smart grid technologies
- Telecommunication networks and systems
- Transportation (railways, aviation, maritime).
Industry trends
The World Economic Forum (2023) suggests that as industries continue to rely on digital technologies for innovation and growth, demand for qualified electrical and electronic engineers is only expected to increase.
Globally and in Australia, there is an engineering skills shortage – with demand for qualified engineers across all sectors continuing to outstrip supply (Engineers Australia, 2023). This demand for electrical and electronic engineering professionals is projected to increase by 9.5% by 2026 alone (Australian Government, 2022).
Accreditation
This program is provisionally accredited at the level of Professional Engineer by Engineers Australia (EA). Graduates are eligible for membership with EA and are recognised internationally through the Washington Accord.
