The Graduate Certificate in Systems Engineering at UNSW Canberra is designed for postgraduate students to develop a high-level understanding of systems engineering principles. It’s a forward-thinking process that includes software, electrical, and mechanical engineering. Systems engineers maintain and design our interconnected world built on increasingly complex systems. Systems Engineering coordinates and translates operational needs into a system designed to meet that need.
In this postgraduate degree, you’ll examine the implementation of systems through the design, development and application phases. This Graduate Certificate offers in-demand skills and experience in analysing, designing and managing complex projects. You’ll learn how to design, integrate, and manage complex systems throughout their life cycles, coordinating performance, cost, and schedule goals. Graduates of this degree can offer systems engineering expertise to current and potential employers.
