Introduction
A degree in engineering opens up a wide range of exciting career opportunities that can contribute to advancement in both the business and technological worlds.
Computer engineers design computers and/ or computer systems, hardware and software to control sensors, embedded devices, and manufacturing or industrial plants. This field of engineering not only focuses on how computer systems themselves work but how they integrate into the larger picture. Computer engineers can choose to work in any industry which requires personnel with expertise in the design and applications of computer hardware, especially the interfacing of computers with other machinery such as networking, control and automation, multimedia, image processing, machine vision, and intelligent systems.

Professional Accreditation
IEAust
The program is recognized by the Society of Engineers Australia, providing professional recognition in the field of engineering in Australia and globally. This recognition ensures that graduates from this course are admitted, on the application, to the grade of Graduate Membership of Engineers Australia.
UOW Australia is a member of the Group of Eight (Go8) Deans of Engineering and Associates, in recognition of its being among the top Australian engineering faculties. This achievement is a direct result of our a world-class reputation in teaching and research.
Accreditation and Recognition
This program is accredited by the UAE Ministry of Education - Higher Education Affairs and is fully recognized within the UAE, GCC nations, and internationally for further education and employment in the private and public sectors.
In addition, the program is quality assured by UOW, which is registered with the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA), the national regulator of the higher education sector in Australia. UOWD graduates have the opportunity to exchange their UOWD degree for the equivalent UOW Australia degree after completion.
Degree Requirements and Program Structure
All students enrolled in the Bachelor of Engineering program should sit the Placement Tests for Mathematics/Statistics and Physics and, if necessary, may be requested to complete foundation subjects for the same. Placement tests are usually scheduled in the first week of your joining semester and students should contact the Faculty Office to apply for the test.
To qualify for the award of the degree of Bachelor of Engineering, a student should accrue an aggregate of at least 220 Credit Points (cp) which include 30cp of General Education, 160cp from the program core, and 30cp major requirements. Students are also required to accrue an overall weighted average mark (WAM) of 50%.
Bachelor of Engineering Placement Tests
All Bachelor of Engineering students should complete two Engineering Placement Tests, one in Physics and one in Mathematics/Statistics. Passing a placement test means you will not be required to take the corresponding remedial subject.
A mark of 60% or above in the test will entitle the student to continue with the year 1 subjects for Mathematics/Statistics and Physics for the Bachelors of Engineering. Students who score less than 60% on the test would be required to enroll in a remedial zero level subject to further strengthen their foundations in these subjects.
