- Understanding of systems engineering:

the process of understanding and designing a system, or component of a system, to meet desired needs within realistic constraints;

- Background in fundamental scientific principles:

with an ability to apply these together with engineering techniques to identify, formulate, and solve problems;

- Competency in principles of professional practice:

including project management, business practice, documentation, sustainability, product life-cycle, social and ethical constraints and responsibilities;

- Practised capabilities in communications:

including personal and interpersonal capabilities to communicate effectively by oral and written means in a variety of contexts including meetings, presentations, team leadership and participation, customer relations;

- Research principles and methods to independently solve complex problems that may involve developing new understanding;

for careers in the infrastructure, high-technology, precision manufacturing, telecommunications, government and academic sectors.

About inherent requirementskeyboard_arrow_down

Inherent requirements are the essential components of a course or program necessary for a student to successfully achieve the core learning outcomes of a course or program. Students must meet the inherent requirements to complete their Macquarie University course or program. For more information see https://students.mq.edu.au/study/my-study-program/inherent-requirements. Inherent requirements for Macquarie University programs fall under the following categories:

Physicalkeyboard_arrow_down

The physical inherent requirement is to have the physical capabilities to safely and effectively perform the activities necessary to undertake the learning activities and achieve the learning outcomes of an award.

Cognitionkeyboard_arrow_down

The inherent requirement for cognition is possessing the intellectual, conceptual, integrative and quantitative capabilities to undertake the learning activities and achieve the learning outcomes of an award.

Communicationkeyboard_arrow_down

The inherent requirement for communication is the capacity to communicate information, thoughts and ideas through a variety of mediums and with a range of audiences.

Behaviouralkeyboard_arrow_down

The behavioural inherent requirement is the capacity to sustain appropriate behaviour over the duration of units of study to engage in activities necessary to undertake the learning activities and achieve the learning outcomes of an award.
