GRADUATE DIPLOMA IN ELECTRONIC
SYSTEMS
Course Code M69
This course is designed for engineers (from other disciplines of
engineering) and scientists who wish to work in the electronics
industry, with expertise in digital and analog electronics and
microelectronics.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
An undergraduate engineering degree from an Australian
university or equivalent institute. Other undergraduate degrees are
acceptable if a good coverage of mathematics, including Calculus
and Linear Algebra, and some elements of physics are included.
COURSE LOCATION
This course is available on Joondalup Campus.
MODE OF STUDY
This course is available by Part-time mode.
MODE OF DELIVERY
This course is available in the following modes of delivery -
Campus-Based, and Online.
COURSE STRUCTURE
This course will be offered on a part-time load basis only - 2 units
per semester.

ENS4205 Advanced Electronics 15
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Completion of a three year tertiary qualification.
Mathematics
The Graduate Diploma of Science (Mathematics) is designed for
persons who possess a three-year tertiary qualification which
includes at least two, one-semester mathematics units or the
equivalent. For those who hold a degree in which mathematics
formed a significant component, the Master of Science
(Mathematics and Planning) is more appropriate.
The Graduate Diploma course provides a broadly based
foundation of Core units together with Elective Units in
mathematics, computing and statistics. The course caters
specifically for the part-time student: the award can be completed
in two years of evening studies. Graduates should complete the
course with the knowledge and skills needed to apply
mathematics and statistics to their professional responsibilities.
