Electrical engineers play a vital role in renewable energy generation, heavy industry and manufacturing installations, robotics and automation, mining, and electrical power distribution. When you study electrical and electronics engineering at UOW, you will gain advanced knowledge of electrical and electronic devices and systems, computer systems, telecommunications and electrical power engineering. In this major you will study subjects that will give you the specialist knowledge you need to move into the industry, including power engineering, power electronics and drives, control system, robotics and flexible automation. You will study a common first year, allowing you to learn more about engineering and its different fields before focusing on electrical and electronic engineering from your second year onwards. The common first year provides you with sound fundamentals in mathematics, statistics, physics, chemistry, computing, engineering science and communication, mechanics, materials and fluids. You may gain credit for relevant work experience, either in Australia or overseas, by participating in our Professional Options Program. First year provides you with sound fundamentals in mathematics, statistics, physics, computing, engineering science and communication, mechanics and materials. You then focus on your electrical and electronics engineering major from second year.
