Master of Engineering Science (Coursework and Minor Thesis) for 2009

Course overview

Australia's pulp and paper industry over the next few years will invest more than $3 billion in major projects, including two pulp mills, two paper machines, upgrades and rebuilds. The massive capital injection, combined with market globalisation, will create many new employment opportunities for engineers and scientists in pulp and paper.

The Master of Engineering Science, offered by the Australian Pulp and Paper Institute in the Monash Department of Chemical Engineering, is designed to give students an understanding of the industry's more advanced areas of engineering theory, application and technology. Since it was established in 1989, APPI has trained over 200 engineering and science graduates, many of whom have become senior managers in the pulp and paper industry.The degree by coursework and minor thesis is suitable for students from a range of engineering and scientific backgrounds, including chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, chemistry, forestry and mathematics.

After completing the coursework, you will gain valuable experience undertaking a three-month minor thesis project in industry.
