About
Energy technology and systems, and electronics technologies, are undergoing a rapid transition as we move to a more sustainable and digitally connected future. The demand for renewable energy generation and storage, the use of sophisticated information technology for monitoring and management, and our reliance on devices has never been greater. This rapidly evolving environment presents unique opportunities for highly skilled electrical and electronic engineers.
The Electrical and Electronic Engineering specialisation will provide you with knowledge and skills to design and operate future electrical energy systems and technologies. You’ll utilise your knowledge of electrical energy and electronic engineering principles; apply circuit modelling, measurement and simulation techniques; and use industry-standard design software tools to identify, formulate and solve complex multidisciplinary problems.
Areas of study
Advanced system on chip design, communications networks, digital circuits and systems, digital embedded systems and hardware, electrical machines, energy conversion and storage, engineering mathematics, engineering physics, feedback control systems, linear circuits and devices, optimisation and management, power and analogue electronic device design, power system analysis, signals and systems, smart power grids and their design.
Career opportunities
Computer hardware engineer, consultant, electrical engineer, electronic engineer, electronics designer, environmental and sustainability designer, project manager, research and development engineer.
Practical experience
You’ll undertake a work-integrated learning activity with a partner organisation.

ATAR profile
ATAR-based offers only (semester 1, 2024)
Use all ATAR profile data as a guide only; it provides a broad overview of the ATARs and selection ranks of previous Year 12 students admitted into that course. ATARs and selection ranks required for entry in 2025 may be different. If you are unsure about including a course among your preferences, contact the relevant institution.
- This ATAR profile table is in line with Commonwealth Government transparency requirements. It is based on offers to recent school leavers (ie completed Year 12 in the last 2 years) who were selected solely or partly on their ATAR. Note that some institutions further differentiate this information on their websites.
- The ATAR values exclude any adjustment factors.
- The selection ranks include the ATAR and any adjustment factors.
