Learn from highly qualified engineers with the Southern Hemisphere’s most advanced collection of maritime facilities. The Australian Maritime College’s (AMC) Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours degree will provide you with a combination of core knowledge and transferable skills that are highly valued by employers. Our degree is designed to prepare you for your engineering career with the expertise to pursue one of three maritime specialisations; Naval Architecture, Ocean Engineering, or Marine and Offshore Engineering. You will learn from highly qualified engineers who are committed to delivering a study experience that is practical and industry orientated. In addition to individual and group projects, laboratory work and training in the Southern Hemisphere’s most advanced maritime research and training facilities, you will also undertake a minimum of 12 weeks real-life work experience to further develop your skillset in a professional learning environment. Our engineering qualification is distinctive and the only of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. You will graduate with a specialist engineering qualification and a competitive skillset that is in demand by employers across the globe.
Course structure Both our Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours degrees are accredited by Engineers Australia (EA), the Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA) and the International Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST). You will have access to world class training and research facilities, providing you with a competitive edge as graduates. After your first two years of study you will choose one of three of our Maritime Engineering specialisations:
Naval Architecture Students who specialise in Naval Architecture will refine their engineering skills with a specialisation in the design and construction of vessels within the shipping, high-speed, offshore, defence, underwater and recreational industries. Our graduates will ensure that Australia stays at the forefront of worldwide high-speed vessel technology.
Marine and Offshore Engineering A specialisation in Marine and Offshore Engineering equips engineering graduates with a specialist skillset in the design, deployment, commissioning, maintenance and management of mechanical and mechanical-electrical systems associated with the shipping, marine and offshore oil and gas industries.
Ocean Engineering Ocean Engineering covers advanced learning in offshore oil and gas engineering, coastal and subsea engineering, and related industries. AMC endeavours to emphasise the novel aspects of ocean engineering associated with developments in deeper waters.
Co-operative Education Course Structure Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours (Cooperative Education) (P4G) AMC also offers a Bachelor of Engineering (specialisation with Honours) Cooperative. This five-year course allows you to combine your studies with between 15 and 18 months of practical experience in your chosen specialisation. Working under the supervision of professional engineers, the course allows you to evaluate your career choice and gain industry experience. You will alternate periods of full-time study with periods of full-time paid work experience.

Career Opportunities Naval Architecture The Bachelor of Engineering (Naval Architecture) with Honours prepares graduates for careers in the shipbuilding industry, designing and constructing luxury super yachts, sailing and power craft, destroyers and patrol boats for the defence industry, underwater vehicles and submarines, and big ocean cruise liners; the high-speed ferry industry; insurance sector; and marine consultancy firms. It is also an excellent gateway to a career in government in the areas of commercial shipping, transport policy and administration.
Ocean Engineering The Bachelor of Engineering (Ocean Engineering) with Honours prepares students for careers designing and managing the installation of offshore, subsea and coastal structures for the oil and gas industry, in particular the offshore industry; the renewable energy industry; coastal and environmental engineering; marine consultancy firms; and ocean research organisations.
Marine and Offshore Engineering The Bachelor of Engineering (Marine and Offshore Engineering) with Honours is unique to AMC and focuses on the design, manufacture, deployment and commissioning of machinery and systems associated with the marine and offshore industries. Marine systems focus on the selection, deployment and commissioning of machinery, mechanical and electrical systems and operational systems designed to support the ship and underwater vehicle industry.
Professional Recognition Both our Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours degrees are professionally accredited by Engineers Australia. This qualification also addresses the Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies for a Professional Engineer.
“I enjoy the balance between theory and applying it in practical situations. In first year, we built two vessels for completely different reasons. Both experiences helped me to understand and apply what we have been learning in the classroom.” Thomas Rehrmann Bachelor of Engineering (Naval Architecture) with Honours
