Study Areas

The Bachelor of Engineering (Marine and Offshore Systems) is designed to meet the engineering needs of the marine and offshore industries by providing professional engineers with the specialised knowledge required by these industries.
The course is currently the only undergraduate programme in Australia servicing the above requirements, as it integrates relevant sections of the mechanical, electrical, systems, and civil engineering disciplines, while maintaining a maritime/offshore emphasis.
The course prepares students for employment in the marine/offshore engineering industries, including those involved in the design, development and maintenance of marine machinery, shipbuilding, marine classification societies and statutory authorities, power generation, offshore oil and gas production, and naval engineering.
The uniquely maritime focus of AMC together with the wide variety of specialised facilities, provide the graduates with a strong "hands on" approach to complement their theoretical studies, emphasising the engineering systems associated with the marine and offshore industries.

Special Requirements
|
Completion of Year 12 or equivalent, with mid to upper level Mathematics and a Science subject (Physics or Chemistry recommended).
Marine Engineers with Chief Engineer's Certificate of Competency, AMC graduates with Advanced Diploma of Marine Engineering or Bachelor of Technology (Marine Engineering) and graduates in relevant disciplines from other institutes may be accepted, with appropriate advanced standing.
AMC may consider applications from candidates who do not have the above qualifications for entry but who seek admission on the basis of experience gained in the industry or government organisations.
|
Further study options
|
Eligible students may enrol in a double degree, combining this degree with Ocean Engineering or Naval Architecture. After completion of the BE (MarOffSys) degree with Honours, students may apply for entry to the MPhil or PhD degree.
|
Career opportunities
|
The course prepares students for shore-based employment in marine and marine-related industries, thermal power plants, hotels and offshore industries as process, operation, maintenance, research and design engineers and engineer managers.
