Specialisations
Our cutting-edge specialisations allow you to pursue your passions while giving yourself a competitive edge in a dynamic field. Major in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, Cloud Computing and the Internet of Things, Cybersecurity or Data Science and unlock a career in some of Australia’s most in-demand industries.
Cloud Computing & IoT
Cloud Computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) have been the driving force behind global connectivity. From transforming the way we socialise and collaborate, to enhancing productivity and agility in the workforce; the effects are ever present in our daily lives.
AI & Robotics
Focusing on the integration of robotic systems with artificial intelligence, this future-ready specialisation provides access to cutting-edge technology including humanoid robots, robotic arms, mobile robotic platforms and more.
Cybersecurity
Become an expert in fighting cybercrime, conduct digital forensics and mitigate security vulnerabilities with a specialisation in cyber security.
Data Science
Launch into a lucrative career by learning how to make sense of the massive volume of data generated by the digital economy and translate complex data into practical business insights.
Advanced Engineering lab
Our brand new Advanced Engineering Lab is a state-of-the-art engineering teaching space. Designed for flexible teaching of both Robotics and IoT, it provides students with a high-tech, modern learning experience. Opening onto a large deck, the space allows a combined indoor/outdoor experience with room to test and learn both wheeled and air drones
Human-Centred Computing Laboratory
Designed for interdisciplinary research at the intersection of computer science, engineering, health technology, psychology, sports technology and design. This state-of-the-art human observation laboratory contains high-end computing facilities used to analyse video, audio and physiological sensor data.
Collaborative Robotics Laboratory
The CRL is home to our UR-10 robot, Baxter robot, industrial drones and portrait drawing robot. This lab is used predominantly by our research students, who study how humans interact with robots.
Internet of Things Laboratory
Experiment with sensor equipment, drones and WiFi networks used for engineering, network engineering and software engineering. This dedicated space for hands-on project work, allows students to connect and investigate the latest devices, datasets for research and applications.
Innovation Lab
Equipped with high-powered PC's and specialist software, this multipurpose computer laboratory has been specifically created to help students learn mobile technology, games programming, natural user interface, networking, cyber security, and robotics.
Practical experience
Step out of the classroom and into the real world thanks to UC’s Work Integrated Learning (WIL). With professional practice at the heart of our Engineering and Information Technology degrees, you’ll gain real-world work experience while you study. Take part in placements or internships to develop your professionalism and soft skills like negotiation, communication and critical thinking.
Industry projects
In your final year as a technology student, you’ll complete an industry project designed to solve a real-world problem. This is where you’ll gain practical experience in the production and implementation of ICT or engineering solutions for government, a local business or community organisation.
As part of our postgraduate technology degrees, you’ll have the opportunity to team up with our world-class academics and undertake a research project using our Human-Centred Technology research centre.
Featuring high-end computing facilities used to analyse video, audio and other sensory data, this is where you’ll have the opportunity to conduct research that connects computer science, health technology and psychology together.
“The final year industry project was the highlight of my UC journey. I worked with a team of robotics researchers to design and manufacture an advanced robotic hexapod that’s now being used as an educational platform to teach robotics – an incredibly valuable experience to kickstart my professional engineering career.”
