About the course

The Diploma of Engineering (3 Sessions) is a pathway program delivered by UOW College Australia that provides guaranteed entry into second year of a UOW Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (subject to meeting requirements). You’ll study core first‑year engineering subjects with theoretical and practical learning, building foundations in key engineering areas as well as mathematics and physics, and graduate with a Higher Education Diploma while progressing toward your bachelor degree. The programme focuses on applied engineering drawings, workshop skills, and technical maintenance competencies.

This diploma builds foundational engineering knowledge and practical study skills to support entry into the second year of UOW’s Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) across specialisations. Graduates may use the Higher Education Diploma to seek early roles supporting engineering projects while continuing their bachelor studies, with opportunities in technical support, junior engineering assistance, and related industries that value strong maths, physics and problem‑solving fundamentals from a Diploma in engineering.
