Industry-driven classes
‘The project management course at QUT helped me to understand how I need to manage my time, how I need to delegate tasks to my team and then help them to get projects across the line. The best part of the course was being able to share my experiences with my peers and lecturers and discuss real challenges in industry.’
Gaining a career advantage
'I think my course is the best proof of "real world". In reality, engineering projects involve engineers from more than one field and stakeholders who have different priorities. I have had the pleasure of meeting and working with people from different engineering backgrounds, depth of professional experience and nationalities, and my vision is broadening by the knowledge I gain from the people in this course. I chose this degree at QUT because having a greater understanding of project overview and mastering system operation will give me an advantage as I progress in my career.'
Networking opportunities and real-world experience
'I chose QUT for its practical approach to engineering education, emphasising hands-on learning and real-world application, which I believe are crucial for engineers. QUT's strong industry connections offered networking opportunities and real-world experience during my studies, which enhanced my understanding of industry and my career prospects. I also chose QUT for its esteemed reputation in engineering and state-of-the-art facilities.'
Onsite experience
‘QUT positioned me well for my role in the construction engineering industry. From the very first semester when designing and building a crane, there was a big push from our teachers to ensure the design was as minimal as possible. Adding constructability restrictions enabled us to think outside the box and deliver a solution that was fit for purpose. During every honours subject, we were required to pursue a minimalistic design to reach the safest results - ensuring waste and over-designing was reduced. These values help me on a daily basis onsite with the Cross River Rail Project.'
