About Curtin Engineering Faculty

Curtin Engineering Faculty exists to nurture cross-disciplinary teaching and research, thereby providing educational and service benefits to our students that its size permits. An example of this is our unique Engineering Foundation Year first-year program, taken by all Bachelor of Engineering students, that is the 2006 recipient of the National Carrick Award for "First Year Experience" . We offer a range of Bachelor of Engineering (four-year) and Bachelor of Technology (three-year) programs. We also offer Double Degree programs with other disciplines. Visit our prospective students course information website to explore the possible double degrees available.

Curtin Engineering's aim is to provide an experience that results in graduates who have a solid theoretical base, have a strong practical focus, are culturally astute and are professionally accomplished. All of the Faculty's Bachelor's degree programs (Electrical Power, Electronics and Communications, Computer Systems, Mechanical, Mechatronic, Chemical, Civil, Computer Systems and Networking) are fully accredited by Engineers Australia and recognised in overseas countries through the Washington Accord. Our graduates are highly regarded by industry and the professions as is evidenced by very high employment rates. The Faculty has approximately 1,500 equivalent full-time students, 150 academic and support staff.
