Graduate Certificate and Master of
Rolling Stock
Engineering, University of Wollongong
The Graduate Certificate in Rolling Stock Engineering, developed
under the Rail CRC, provides formal education and training for
newly graduated engineers and other engineering staff who wish to
advance their careers.
The program is offered on a part-time basis by distance education,
but does involve a mandatory face-to-face workshop at the
commencement of each subject.
Graduates will be able to use established predictive methods (eg,
models, rules, software, standards) to generate system
specifications and evaluate performance of component systems in
rolling stock (including braking, traction, containment,
communication, motive power, power transmission, and train
control).

Master of Railway Engineering (Railway
Infrastructure
), Queensland University of Technology
This course arose from the collaboration of a number of nationally
important railway companies and organisations through the
Cooperative Research Centre for Railway Engineering and
Technologies. The course addresses the main concepts and
methodologies of the design, construction and maintenance of
railway infrastructure. It aims to advance your skills in and
understanding of the diverse types of railway infrastructure
assets, including technical, environmental and institutional
assessments and offers both theoretical understanding and practical
applications of associated professional practice. An early exit
with a Graduate Certificate in Built Environment and Engineering is
a planned option.
Entry into Semester 1 2009 (23 February to 19 June 2009)
Applications must be received by: 21 January 2009
