About the course
This two-year master’s program develops specialised technical knowledge and professional engineering skills for careers in electrical engineering. Building on ANU’s interdisciplinary engineering strengths and research expertise, it prepares students to tackle complex multi-disciplinary challenges. Study can be tailored toward areas such as power systems, renewable energy, and robotics and autonomous systems, with flexibility to take computing, breadth and university-wide electives to shape a degree aligned to your goals.
What you might learn
Students build advanced electrical engineering capability alongside professional practice and systems-thinking skills. The program develops competence in analysing and designing complex engineered systems, with opportunities to deepen expertise in areas such as control, power and power electronics, renewable energy integration, signal and information processing, communications, robotics and autonomous systems. Flexible electives allow students to strengthen computing and data skills and apply methods to real-world, multi-disciplinary engineering problems.
Career outcome
Graduates are prepared for professional roles across the electrical engineering sector, including power and energy (generation, grids, renewables and microgrids), control and automation, communications and signal processing, embedded and digital systems, robotics and autonomous systems, and engineering data analytics. Career paths may include electrical engineer, power systems engineer, control/automation engineer, renewable energy engineer, robotics engineer, systems engineer, or technical specialist roles in government, utilities, consulting, and technology firms.
Entry requirements
Applicants must hold a 4-year Bachelor of Engineering or Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (or international equivalent) in a cognate discipline, with a minimum GPA of 5.0/7.0. Applicants must also meet ANU English language requirements. Entry is competitive, so meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee admission; ANU may rank applicants by GPA (using specified semester calculations) and may consider higher English proficiency and diversity factors.
