Develop the cutting-edge industry knowledge and skills that are essential for employment as a competent software developer with the potential to move into a leadership role.

RMIT's Bachelor of Software Engineering will equip you with a solid foundation in computer science and maths, and develop deep expertise in software architecture, processes, methodologies and quality frameworks. 

The four-year degree, comprises of two years of study, followed by a one-year industry placement before the final year of study. The work placement provides a unique opportunity to develop your professional and technical skills while creating and extending your professional network.

Working within complex software development environments, operating systems, communications, web software, databases and applications, you'll undertake studies in all facets of the software engineering process.

This degree focuses on the software development life cycle but goes beyond programming to assess and meet customer needs, and to design and test software. It covers studies on software analysis and design, coding, testing and deployment.

Developing software solutions often involves assembling extensive amounts of code into working applications, and updating and fixing problems in existing software.

Choose a software engineering degree if you:

• Want to develop large-scale software systems
• Want to create highly efficient products and systems
• Enjoy maths and systems design combined with computer science.

Designed to build on your existing knowledge, the Diploma of Business is tailored to ensure relevance to contemporary work environments.

It will cover personal and team effectiveness, communication with customers, business continuity for sustainability and risk, and business success through planning.

Expand on your love of languages and develop the skills to use, translate and interpret language every day, in settings as diverse as policy making, strategic debate, and analytical thinking.

Studying the Master of Translating and Interpreting in the heart of Melbourne, you'll learn how to use communication media to support translating and interpreting, and gain insight into the intersection of theory and practice.

You also have the option to undertake further study in interpreting for community health, medical fields, police and legal contexts, and conferences.

By linking translation technology, ethics, and professional and theoretical studies to practical issues in translating and interpreting, you’ll be prepared for whatever path your interpreting or translating career takes you.

Are you ready to take advantage of the huge opportunities for content creators and digital professionals?

You can work in user experience design, art direction, animation and emerging fields of virtual and augmented reality.

The Diploma of Screen and Media (Animation, Gaming and Visual Effects)  provides you with the skills you need to become a creative and capable digital professional.

As an industry-driven course, the Diploma of Screen and Media (Animation, Gaming and Visual Effects) is ideal for students who want to establish a professional animation, gaming and visual effects career in the film, television, online entertainment or gaming industry. You will undertake fundamental units in design, interactivity, 2D and 3D imaging and animation, and media production (video and audio). With a focus on creativity, design thinking and conceptual development, this course will give you an understanding of the fundamental design, technical and management skills required to work in these growing fields.

With advanced technical expertise and research skills, graduates of the Master of Food Science and Technology are fully-equipped to participate in the rapidly advancing field of food science and technology and apply their expertise in inter-disciplinary contexts.

You’ll develop skills and knowledge of food processing and preservation; chemical properties of food materials; food safety, packaging and labelling; and food product and process innovation. You will also undertake subjects to support the wide range of technical positions required by the food industry.
If your background is in science, engineering, agriculture or other related disciplines, the Master of Food Science and Technology is designed to provide professional training in this field. If you have previously completed studies in food science and technology, this degree will enhance and expand your knowledge in the area.

Build upon your foundation of scientific knowledge and develop a deeper knowledge of scientific principles.

In this course, you will gain stronger practical skills and more hands-on laboratory experience.

As a laboratory technician, you’ll be able to conduct tests for pathologists, biochemists, clinical chemists, pharmacologists, veterinarians, microbiologists and bacteriologists. You’ll also be able to apply your knowledge of living systems to work toward solving important issues, such as controlling disease and making the environment safer.

You will provide technical support to scientists working in research, production and testing roles. Under supervision, you’ll get to examine changes in cells and tissues, perform chemical analyses of blood and other body fluids, and assist with research.
With this qualification, you’ll be able to work in hospitals, research institutes, pharmaceutical companies, private pathology laboratories, commercial laboratories and government departments.

Gain the skills and knowledge you'll need to enter the diverse and rewarding field of environmental engineering.

RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental Engineering) (Honours) offers you the chance to specialise in engineering fields critical to solving the world’s environmental challenges. Land contamination and rehabilitation, energy, hydrogeology, wastewater treatment, and sustainable cities are strong focus areas.

During your environmental studies, you’ll learn engineering concepts and technical skills to:

• Preserve the environment
• Minimise water, soil and air pollution
• Assess the environmental impact of engineering projects
