MJRU-ELCME v.1 Electronic and Communication Engineering Major (BEng Hons)
Major/Stream Overview
This major/stream is part of a larger course. Information is specific to the major/stream, please refer to the course for more information.
The electronics and communication fields represent two of the fastest growing technology areas both in Australia and internationally and job opportunities in these fields abound. With the rapid progress of the information society, the role of communications is becoming even more crucial to increased industry efficiency and competitiveness. The reason lies in the decentralisation of computing power in both the office and factory environment and the ability of specialised communication networks to link all geographically and spatially separated elements. In this major students learn about the theoretical and practical aspects of modern electronic and communication systems.
