Duration: 4 years Campus: North Terrace Indicative Annual Tuition Fee: A$27,500 Intakes: Feb and July (students commencing in July may have slightly limited selection of courses) Prerequisites: Mathematics and Physics Faculty: Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences School: Electrical and Electronic Engineering Website: www.ecms.adelaide.edu.au Online enquiry form: www.international.adelaide.edu.au/enquiries Program overview: Telecommunications technologies are shaping the way in which we access news and information relevant to our lives, communicate with family and friends, play computer games and drive the so-called information economy. Telecommunications engineering is concerned with the technologies that underpin modern voice, multimedia and data communications. Telecommunications engineers are responsible for the design, construction, maintenance and evolution of systems from business data networks to global voice and data communications. Relevant technologies include: transmission systems such as optical fibre, satellites, cellular networks, Internet Protocol networks and digital television; digital representation of audio, video and other multimedia; and the control, design and analysis of massive communications networks.
Assessment: Class work, tutorials, project work, exams. All students are required to complete a minimum of 12 weeks practical work experience outside normal class time. Work experience can be undertaken in Australia or other countries. Likely careers: Employment opportunities will be found in the telecommunications, broadcast, Internet and multimedia industries, as well as those industries like construction, mining, defence and power which rely heavily on communications systems to support their operations
