Become the complete computer and engineering professional. Gain expertise in both the hardware and structure of computer systems as well as the software that is used to control them.

In this double degree, you'll acquire extensive knowledge of computer system architecture, software design and the necessary skills required for developing network-based computing applications. Additionally, the computer engineering aspects will develop your skills in the field of embedded computer systems or 'smart devices', as well as provide you with expertise in large scale network design and the implementation of digital communication networks that are vital for many big businesses. The double degree will also allow you to focus your skills on a range of topics, covering Internet of Things (loT) platforms, sensor networks, high-performance parallel processing, real-time embedded systems and signal processing.

As an RMIT graduate, you will have your engineering knowledge, skills and capabilities complements and enhanced by excellent programming skills and capabilities in designing, implementing and maintaining complex networks and software systems.

You鈥檒l have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge - a humanitarian-focused course offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.

To ensure you graduate job-ready, you鈥檒l also have an opportunity to undertake a work-integrated learning (industry experience) elective.

Career

Businesses will spend more on software and computer systems in the years to come, and the demand for graduates with both engineering and computer science expertise is expected to be very high.

Our graduates work in industries including defence, health and science, business, communication and security. They design and build computer and communication networks, and work with both the hardware and structure of computer systems and the software controlling them.

Telecommunication operators such as Telstra, equipment manufacturers such as Cisco, and IT departments of all organisations employ network engineers to carry out design, implementation and maintenance tasks.

Universities and research organisations also need computer scientists and engineers to improve their computer technologies.

Job opportunities exist with governments to improve defence, security and emergency services.
