    Engineering at Victoria University of Wellington

    Victoria's engineering programme is centred on the digital world. We combine the best of electronics and software in our hands-on programme, so you get started straight away on practical projects while learning the theory. You could help make robots to explore damaged buildings, design large scale networks, develop mobile communication systems and much more. Our degree programme is fresh yet focussed on industry, and will equip you fully for a professional career in this rapidly developing area.

    Bachelor of Engineering

    A Bachelor of Engineering requires four years of full-time study. 480 points are required, of which at least 320 points must be above 100 level, at least 210 points must be above 200 level, and 120 points must be at 400 level. Honours is awarded based on achievement in the third and fourth years of study.

    Electronic and Computer System Engineering (ECEN)

    Focuses on the combination of hardware and software techniques to develop innovative solutions to problems. Students learn techniques from digital and analogue electronics, power electronics, embedded controllers, software development, industrial design and artificial intelligence to arrive at the best designs and implementations.

    Network Engineering (NWEN):

    Focuses on the design of distributed and networked solutions. Graduates will understand modern communication technologies, network protocols, middleware, and software development. They will be able to design, build, and configure modern networks and networked systems. The programme emphasises the interaction between networked applications and their environment.

    Software Engineering (SWEN):

    Focuses on the design, implementation and maintenance of software systems that behave reliably and efficiently and are affordable to develop and maintain. The programme draws on technologies for both small- and large-scale development, emphasises both flexible and agile development, includes a range of methodologies and considers human factors.

    Postgraduate Study

    The Faculty offers postgraduate study in engineering following on from the undergraduate Bachelor of Engineering degree. The following qualifications are offered:
