Master of Research - Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences (Computer Engineering)

At University of Wollongong, tuition fees are 34,912 USD per year; applications are due 9 December, 2025.

Computer engineering research tackles the design and development of hardware, embedded systems, and emerging internet technologies, exploring how advanced signal processing, image and video handling, and network architectures can solve real-world problems. This Master of Research builds on those questions, offering a pathway to develop deep technical expertise and contribute new knowledge in the field.

A distinctive feature of this programme is its provisional accreditation by Engineers Australia, providing a professional benchmark for graduates. The curriculum combines 48 credit points of research training and coursework in the first year with a 48-credit point thesis in the second year, allowing you to apply theoretical concepts to a substantial research project.

The course suits applicants with a strong academic record in engineering or related disciplines who wish to pursue a research career or advanced professional practice. You will gain specialised skills in areas such as advanced signals and systems, image and video processing, and future-internet architectures, preparing you for roles in industry or further doctoral study.
