program:	Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)
description:	The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) is a suite of technical and professional courses that integrates the broad Systems Engineering foundations and engineering specialisation courses. This program of courses ensures graduates possess sound understanding of theoretical principles and methods from the underpinning physical, mathematical and information sciences that underpin at least one field of engineering specialisation, and build the skills to apply this knowledge, engineering methods and relevant tools to design and implement innovative, optimised and sustainable solutions to complex engineering problems. In addition to building complex problem solving, systems engineering and engineering design skills, these courses are strongly focused on building project management, team work and communication skills, understanding of societal, ethical, and environmental aspects of engineering practice, and other important professional and personal attributes. These courses also expose the students to emerging directions in engineering practice, and build their independent learning skills needed to facilitate professional development throughout their career. The program is designed to ensure graduates attain EA Stage 1 Competency Standard and build their technical and professional skills to conduct analysis and structured solving of complex, multi-disciplinary real-world engineering problems by using existing knowledge and tools, and through the design of novel engineering solutions through research and development individually and as a member of a larger interdisciplinary team.

program learning outcomes:	Professionally apply systematic engineering methods to design optimised and sustainable solutions to complex, multi-disciplinary real-world engineering problems. Formulate and evaluate solutions to engineering problems by selecting and applying theoretical principles and methods from the underpinning physical, mathematical and information sciences. Proficiently apply advanced technical knowledge and appropriate tools in at least one field of engineering specialisation. Identify and critically evaluate current developments and emerging trends within at least one field of engineering specialisation, and; Understand the contextual factors that influence professional engineering practice, and identify the potential societal, ethical, and environmental impact of engineering activities. Communicate effectively with colleagues, other engineering professionals and the broader community employing a range of communication media and tools, and; Work effectively and proactively within cross-cultural, multi-disciplinary teams, demonstrating autonomy, ethical conduct, well-developed judgement, adaptability and responsibility to achieve engineering outcomes at a high standard. Engage in independent research and investigation through the application of research-based knowledge and research methods, including searching, analysing and evaluating information sources within and beyond their engineering discipline. Engage effectively in critical reflection and independent learning to continue practicing at the forefront of the discipline.
