As part of Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Telecommunications) degree, you will undertake industry placement and work on the Capstone project through the below units:

MIT’s School of IT & Engineering has designed these units to provide you with real-world experience, working for an industry client. The Industry Experience unit will require you to undertake eight weeks (full-time) or 16 weeks (part-time) industry placement. The additional two project units will provide you with a capstone final year project in system specification, analysis, design, development, implementation, testing and troubleshooting. You will tackle complex real-world problems with technical and creative skills.

Our past students have worked on capstone project such as:

Mobile Communication - Handover scheme in Vehicle Network
Home Automation - Wi-Fi-based Home Automation System
Telecommunication - Implementation of Machine Learning Algorithms to optimise Mobile Tower Management
Farming - Development of an app to inform farmers of the stress level in plants using IOT devices
Farming - Creating an IoT sensor network to aid farmers on the correct irrigation need for the farmland for maximum yield
Environment - Creating an IoT device-based sensor network to monitor the water level in rivers and logging the information
Retirement Homes - Creating a Voice enabled IoT network to aid elderly to control the home appliances
Human Resources - Classification and sorting of CV through Machine Learning

Industry-Based Projects and Internships

Industry Experience

It is mandatory for awarding of the degree that the students undertake Industry Experience of eight weeks (full-time) or 16 weeks (half-time). If a third party is required to find the placement for the student, it will incur a fee (currently up to $1094.50) which the student is responsible for. This industry experience is designed to meet Engineers Australia accreditation requirements. Students will enrol in the Industry Experience unit (BE700) at an approved time from Teaching Period 3.
