For those seeking ways to expand their career options in Geotechnical Engineering and Engineering Geology, or those who would like to move their existing engineering career in a new direction, the Master of Engineering Science will provide the advanced skills and knowledge required. This program helps practitioners enhance and deepen their practical and theoretical knowledge. It provides students with advanced study options in Geotechnical Engineering/Engineering Geology and is ideally suited to practising Geotechnical Engineers and Engineering Geologists. The Master of Engineering Science program promotes flexible learning as a keystone of the program – it is designed for students who already have a four year accredited engineering degree and who now wish to broaden their job prospects through cross training, re-training or specialisation. This program takes two years to complete (students may be granted credit for some courses. Those with a degree or extensive professional experience in a related area can apply for credit of up to 50% of a program); it is a non-accredited program, and does not offer industrial training. The typical program structure comprises sixteen courses, broken down into: four Disciplinary Knowledge Courses, five Advanced Disciplinary Courses, three Research Courses and four Electives.
