Relevant work experience

Relevant work experience includes professional practice or work in an engineering environment relevant to the field of study, to which you are seeking admission. This will need to be supported with evidence.

Evidence of relevant work experience should include a letter from your employer (and/or previous employers) clearly stating the following:

  • That you work (or worked) within the specified organisation
  • The nature of your work, detailing any relevant duties and responsibilities to the entry criteria above
  • The length of time you were in your role/s (i.e demonstrating minimum length for entry) and whether this was full-time, part-time, or casual
  • Any further bespoke conditions listed by the entry criteria

Letters will typically be expected to be presented on company letterhead and signed by a manager or HR representative. A CV or resume is not a sufficient document on its own, and must be accompanied by a supporting letter as described above.

All applications based on work experience are subject to an individual assessment.

Entry into a program through work experience does not necessarily provide a pathway into further study in a Masters.
