About the course

A Diploma is a 12-month course that gives you the foundational skills and knowledge in a specific stream. A Diploma in Engineering will take you straight into Second Year of a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) at UNSW. It is a great option for you as an international student if you need a bit more support but don't want to add extra time to your degree. If you have just missed out on direct entry into your preferred bachelor's degree, or hold qualifications that are not recognised by UNSW Sydney, this could also be the program for you.

　　UNSW are world leaders in engineering education and research, and have the No.1 Engineering faculty in Australia. Add in a recent 1 billion facilities upgrade, and you have everything you need to build a successful future in this field.

　　UNSW provides world-class education and a career-focused student experience. You will belong to a connected student community with opportunities to expand your network socially and professionally, as well as full access to UNSW’s world-class libraries, labs, clubs and societies.

　　Mechatronic engineers are involved in creating smart machines and autonomous systems, such as robots, self-operating cars and automated industrial machines. This evolving industry also covers software development to control sophisticated machinery. Understanding the conception process, design, construction, maintenance and integration of smart machinery and systems is integral to working as a mechatronic engineer, and can lead you to a career in industries such as manufacturing, automotive, mining, cargo handling and agriculture.
