The Master of Applied Cybernetics is a 1 year full-time (or equivalent part-time) degree that provides students with:

• Advanced skills in managing cyber-physical systems from critical thinking and questioning, to an understanding of how the technology relates to the regulatory environment. 
• A solid understanding of the machine and human components of a cyber-physical system, including their historical context. 
• The intellectual framework for the management of complex, integrated systems within a social and environmental context. 
• The opportunity to undertake cybernetics-related research and work experience of professional relevance.

Learning Outcomes

1. Select, adapt, apply, and communicate advanced methods and applied cybernetics techniques for analysing cyber-physical systems;
2. Apply knowledge and analysis of cyber-physical systems to decision-making in a broad range of contexts, including: policy, business, community organisations, academia and service delivery;
3. Examine current issues in cyber-physical systems from design to decommissioning using leading-edge research and design practices;
4. Demonstrate advanced cognitive, technical, and communication skills to work independently and collaboratively to collect, process, interpret and communicate the outcomes of challenges and opportunities associated with cyber-physical systems; and
5. Communicate complex systems outcomes of cyber-physical research and practice to diverse audiences.
