Advanced Diploma of Engineering Technology - Electrical
Charge up your career in electrical engineering by gaining skills and knowledge in all the latest specialist technologies and systems, to open up a new world of job opportunities.
This qualification gives you the skills for the implementation of smart homes (Internet of Things), automated industrial production line mechatronics, and administering or upgrading infrastructure for small to large scale businesses among many other innovative applications.
You will learn how to program logic controllers using the industry-based system Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), electrical design, motor control, computer programming, diagnose faults or malfunctions in electrical systems, provide alternative approaches or solutions, software applications and pneumatic systems.
Note: This course is best suited for people who already have some background or experience in this field. If you're unsure, please seek advice from the training provider to see whether this course is the right choice for you.
This nationally recognised and accredited qualification may provide advanced standing towards a relevant university degree, if you would like to pursue higher level study.
