You’ll also build high-level technical knowledge and appropriate professional skills such as management, leadership and business enterprise. And, with a focus on project-based and multi-disciplinary learning, you'll develop your professional engineering competencies in teamwork, leadership, problem solving, communication and research.

Upon graduation, you’ll be ready to step up as a project leader, consultant or manager in the mechanical engineering space.

Develop your advanced research skills and contribute to new developments in applied chemistry.

RMIT's modern, purpose-built and well-equipped facilities, including analytical instruments, will support your research.
Under expert supervision, you will join researchers already active in:

• Analytical chemistry (metabolomics, natural products extraction and identification), separation science (focus on gas and liquid chromatography), flow injection analysis and mass spectrometry)
• Environmental analysis (air, soil and water quality, environmental contamination, biosolids, environmental toxicology)
• Occupational health and safety (open systems research, management and governance, risk management)
• Physical and materials chemistry (organic and inorganic synthesis, colloidal chemistry, functional surfaces, micro- and nano-technologies, nano-biotechnology, electrochemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis).
• This masters degree may be undertaken in a project or thesis mode.
• RMIT's primary research activities are conducted within the Centre for Advanced Materials and Industrial Chemistry.

The School of Science's researchers have a demonstrated record of success in collaborations, funding and research publications.
You will work with researchers who are past and present winners of ARC Future Fellowships and DECRA’s, the AGR Matthey Gold medal for outstanding contribution in the field of applied gold chemistry, the RK Murphy Medal for Industrial Chemistry, the Silver Jubilee Medal of the Chromatographic Society, London, the CLRI Padmabhushan Dr Y Nayudamma Chemcon Distinguished Speaker Award (awarded by the Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers).

The majority of research staff are Members and Fellows of professional societies including: the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering, the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK, and the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI).

In the 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia assessments we were ranked at ‘well above world standard’ for physical chemistry and ‘above world standard’ for analytical chemistry.

Gain the knowledge and skills essential for a career in the electronic, computer systems, communication and network engineering industries.

RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering) (Honours) will enable you to find better solutions to challenges in the design, construction and maintenance of embedded systems, firmware development, electronic hardware, communication and network systems.

This could include the automation of electrical and electronic systems; audio and visual information acquisition, digital signal processing; human-machine interaction, industrial or medical instrumentation and monitoring; reconfigurable logic development; distributed computing and provision of security for computer systems and networks.

You will learn to design and build devices and systems that transfer and store information via radio frequency or optical fibre transmissions, and manage and secure the flow of information through such systems.   

In this flexible degree, tailored for you, you will have a wide range of options to specialise in various sub-areas of electronic and computer systems engineering, including:

• Digital systems 
• Embedded systems
• Software engineering
• Electronics and sensing applications
• Network engineering and security
• Wireless and optical communications
• Defence systems.

You will have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge - a humanitarian-focused challenge offered in all RMIT engineering degrees.

Build in-demand skills, choose your area of study and follow your passion in the emerging and expansive field of data science.

RMIT's Bachelor of Data Science will develop skills in data analytics, statistics, computer science, machine learning, programming, mathematics, and data wrangling that will enable you to be central to business decision-making, corporate strategy and government planning. 

You will gain strong problem-solving skills, and learn how to effectively communicate your work to technical and non-technical audiences, work independently or as a team, and factor in relevant standards, ethical and legal considerations to your projects.

Using cutting-edge technologies, you will learn how to analyse and manage large amounts of data from various sources and evaluate their insights and solutions. You will gain hands-on experience using Python and R programming languages. 

Personalise your degree to suit your career aspirations, selecting from a wide range of majors and minors. Major in advanced data science, cyber security or enterprise systems. Specialise in AI, data analysis, cloud computing, mixed reality, software development and blockchain.  

Gain industry experience and connections while you study through work integrated learning experiences. Opportunities include capstone projects, case studies and programming studios.

The environment faces threats and challenges that include climate change, habitat loss, overpopulation, emerging contaminant and pollution events, and food and water security.

The breadth of these environmental challenges requires a combination of knowledge and skills in chemistry, biology, statistics, research, and earth sciences for an interdisciplinary approach to surmounting these difficulties.

In RMIT's Bachelor of Environmental Science, you will learn about the biogeochemical processes that occur in both natural and degraded environments, and specialise with areas of study like environmental biology, environmental chemistry, geosciences or geospacial sciences.

Over the course of your environmental studies, you will undertake both practical and industry-relevant activities, where you will:

• Gain considerable hands-on experience with equipment, both in the laboratory and in the field
• Undertake frequent field trips during the second and third year
• Work on collaborative projects with industry, gaining hands-on experience.

These activities involve working in small groups to foster teamwork and a collaborative approach to research and projects.

With a strong focus on ideas-led venturous design exploration, RMIT’s Master of Architecture will assist you to develop a sophisticated understanding of architecture, while providing you with a diverse set of advanced skills and learning experiences.

You’ll continue to develop the core skills of architectural design learnt in the degree to an advanced level. You will enhance your understanding of architecture and design-based research, acquire diverse skills, undertake a wide variety of learning experiences and gain critical awareness of your own work.
RMIT Architecture and its graduates continue to achieve at the highest levels and are acknowledged by the national and international architectural profession.

At the annual 2018 Victorian Architecture Awards run by the Australian Institute of Architects, RMIT’s architecture community featured prominently across the 58 awards and 16 categories, receiving a number of key and prestigious awards.
