Overview

Gain the knowledge and skills essential for a career in the electronic, computer systems, communication and network engineering industries.

RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering) (Honours) will enable you to find better solutions to challenges in the design, construction and maintenance of embedded systems, firmware development, electronic hardware, communication and network systems.

This could include the automation of electrical and electronic systems; audio and visual information acquisition, digital signal processing; human-machine interaction, industrial or medical instrumentation and monitoring; reconfigurable logic development; distributed computing and provision of security for computer systems and networks.

Why study electronic and computer systems engineering at RMIT?

Prepare for your career

Graduate job-ready with local or international industry placements, and industry research projects such as Engineering Without Borders.

Hands-on learning

Your work will be largely laboratory-based, conducting experiments and designing solutions for various industry-relevant projects.

World-class education

Learn from passionate, supportive and experienced legal practitioners, using innovative learning and teaching approaches.

You will learn to design and build devices and systems that transfer and store information via radio frequency or optical fibre transmissions, and manage and secure the flow of information through such systems.   

In this flexible degree, tailored for you, you will have a wide range of options to specialise in various sub-areas of electronic and computer systems engineering, including:

• digital systems 
• embedded systems
• software engineering
• electronics and sensing applications
• network engineering and security
• wireless and optical communications
• defence systems.

You will have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge – a humanitarian-focused challenge offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.
