C11236v1 Graduate Certificate in Engineering
University of Technology Sydney
About
This course is designed to provide an opportunity for professional engineers to extend their knowledge and update their skills in line with recent advances.This course allows busy professional engineers to embark on postgraduate studies before committing to a master's degree.
The course follows an integrated approach to professional practice through professional engineering subjects and subjects relating to a particular stream (major).
Upon completion, students may articulate to a relevant master's program with credit for the subjects completed in this course.
Structure
Students are required to complete 24 credit points, comprising professional engineering (6 credit points), stream (12 credit points), and elective (6 credit points).

Entry requirements
Applicants must have completed a UTS recognised bachelor's degree, or an equivalent or higher qualification, or submitted other evidence of general and professional qualifications that demonstrates potential to pursue graduate studies.
It is a requirement that the bachelor's degree be in engineering and relevant to the applicant's proposed stream, with no more than 25 per cent of subjects failed.
The stream is selected at the time of application to the course. Applicants who do not intend to undertake a specified stream must complete a subject nomination form and attach it to their application.
The English proficiency requirement for international students or local applicants with international qualifications is: Academic IELTS: 6.5 overall with a writing score of 6.0; or TOEFL: paper based: 550-583 overall with TWE of 4.5, internet based: 79-93 overall with a writing score of 21; or AE5: Pass; or PTE: 58-64; or CAE: 176-184.
Eligibility for admission does not guarantee offer of a place.
