Course Content
Launch
Explores the common expectations and experiences of university study to assist students to transition effectively to a higher education learning environment, including technological platforms, academic integrity, support services, and strategies for independent learning.
Language for Learning
Develops knowledge of, and competence and confidence in, text-based language in preparation for future studies, focusing on engaging with and critically analysing sources of information and developing written and spoken skills.
Enabling Mathematics A
Introduces foundational mathematical ideas for engineering study, covering algebra, equations, straight lines and an introduction to functions and relations, with engineering-related examples.
Scientific Thinking
Provides a functional understanding of the basic tenets of science and the cognitive skills needed to solve complex problems, including critical, logical and creative thinking, applied to a United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (UN SDG) research project.
Enabling Mathematics B
Continues DPEN021, extending mathematical competence and problem-solving through trigonometry, limits, differentiation and integration, with engineering applications.
Fundamentals of Engineering Mechanics
Explores fundamental laws of motion and their application to the analysis and design of simple structures through design and build projects, and the professional responsibilities of engineers.
Engineering Design for Sustainability
Draws together engineering principles to develop context-appropriate solutions to engineering challenges through team-based investigation, concept development and detailed design.
Materials in Design
Explores the interrelationships between materials structure, properties, processing, application and lifecycle, applying materials science and lifecycle analysis to sustainable engineering solutions.
Engineering Computing and Analysis
Teaches algorithm design and computer programming using MATLAB, covering problem-solving techniques, data types, control flow, data visualisation and computational tools such as kinematics of motion.
Electrical Systems
Introduces real-world electrical systems including charge, current, voltage, resistance, capacitance and AC/DC circuit analysis, with a laboratory component covering measurement and circuit design.
Foundations of Engineering Mathematics
Covers Calculus (differential and introductory integral calculus) and Linear Algebra (matrices, determinants and vector geometry) with engineering examples.
Physics for Engineers
Covers vectors, electricity and magnetism, electromagnetic waves, DC circuits, and an introduction to waves, optics and quantum/atomic physics.
Common Questions
The Diploma of Engineering (3 Session) has a duration of 58 weeks, delivered at the UOW College Wollongong Campus in New South Wales.
The estimated total course cost is AU$39,960, which consists entirely of tuition fees. There are no additional non-tuition fees listed.
The course is delivered at the UOW College Wollongong Campus in New South Wales, a location owned and operated by the provider UOWC Ltd (CRICOS Provider Code: 02723D).
No, the Diploma of Engineering (3 Session) does not include a work component and is not classified as a foundation studies course.
No, the Diploma of Engineering (3 Session) is not eligible for extended Post-Study Work Rights. Extended Post-Study Work Rights require the course to be a Skills Level 1 qualification (Bachelor, Masters or PhD) with a duration of 92 weeks or greater, among other criteria — this course is a Diploma of 58 weeks duration and does not meet those requirements.

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
