Yes, completion of the Master of Engineering Science may assist graduates in meeting eligibility criteria for membership to various levels of Engineers Australia, which is a key professional body for engineers in Australia.

Students in the Master of Engineering Science will develop skills in information analysis, problem solving, communication, and research planning and execution. The course has a strong focus on independent research work and builds on existing undergraduate engineering knowledge, allowing students to expand their specialised technical expertise in their chosen discipline or a related field.
