Engineer the technology that will power the future.
Be a part of the next generation of electrical and electronic technology. Electrical engineering is concerned with large scale electrical systems including renewable power generation and electric motors. Electronic engineering focuses on lower voltage systems such as computer systems, communication networks and integrated circuits. Together they are critical for next generation applications such as autonomous vehicles, space technology, smart cities and a low-carbon economy.
The Electrical and Electronic Engineering degree at Flinders allows you to specialise in four areas - Advanced Electrical Engineering, Advanced Electronic Engineering, Computer and Network Systems or Electronic Systems and Security.
