Additional Information

Entry Requirements

A student must hold a Bachelor of Engineering in manufacturing or industrial engineering or a related discipline with at least Honours II/2 (or equivalent), or hold a Graduate Certificate of Engineering with at least a credit average or an equivalent qualification from UNSW or another recognised university or tertiary institution in order to be admitted to the stream.

Those without such a qualification are required to argue their prior learning is equivalent to this qualification. For example, a 3- or 4-year Bachelor of Engineering or Science combined with relevant discipline experience (exact positions and roles that will be considered relevant to be decided by each specialisation) may be recognised.
