Unit description
It is a requirement of the Bachelor of Engineering degree that students complete at least 12 weeks (ie, 60 days, full-time) of relevant work experience in industry before graduation. Students should enrol in this unit as soon as they complete the prerequisites. Please note that it is the personal responsibility of students to obtain industry work experience to satisfy the requirements of the Bachelor of Engineering degree.
This unit is assessed on the basis of a Final Report and detailed records of work experience recorded in a dedicated log book.
Students who have the opportunity to undertake professional experience for ENGG400 at the same partner organisation where they will also complete technical work which results in the completion of a thesis for ENG411, may be able to fulfill the distinct requirements of both ENGG400 and ENGG411. These requirements involve not only the completion of professional and technical experience with an industry partner but also a thesis (ENGG411) and all relevant curriculum and assessments (ENGG400). Please consult with the unit convenor for more information.
