This degree is designed for engineering high achievers, and will provide you with a combination of core knowledge and transferable skills that are highly valued by employers, as well as significant industry experience prior to graduation. Our degree is designed to prepare you for your engineering career with the expertise to pursue one of three maritime specialisations:
Naval Architecture provides student with specialist knowledge and technical skills to design and construct vessels within the shipping, high-speed, offshore, defense, underwater and recreational industries;
Ocean Engineering provides student with specialist knowledge and technical skills to design offshore structures, sub-sea and coastal installations for sustainable development in the maritime environment;
Marine and Offshore Engineering provides student with specialist knowledge and technical skills in design, deployment, commissioning and management of mechanical and mechanical-electrical systems associated with the shipping, marine and offshore oil and gas industries.
This 5-year course allows you to combine your studies with between 15 and 18 months of practical experience in your chosen specialisation. Working under the supervision of professional engineers, the course allows you to evaluate your career choice and gain industry experience. You will alternate periods of full-time study with periods of full-time paid work experience.
Course objectives
The Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours (Co-operative Education) programme is a distinctive Maritime Engineering degree and the only of its kind in the Southern hemisphere. The five-year programme is accredited by Engineers Australia and aligned with the needs of industry, opening up a world of possible careers for professionally qualified maritime engineers who can provide innovative and creative solutions within the Australian and international maritime industry. The degree has a strong practical approach using our specialist facilities.
This program combines study with practical experience in the chosen field and will alternate periods of full-time study with periods of full-time paid work experience within the industry. The students will work under the supervision of professional engineers which will enable them to evaluate career choices and gain experience in a variety of industry and engineering work settings.
Within the first two years of study, compulsory units in the degree cover the fundamental aspects of maritime engineering, after which students specialise in one of the following:
- naval architecture, focusing on the design and construction of vessels within the shipping, high-speed, offshore, military, underwater and recreational industries;
- ocean engineering, focusing on the design of offshore structures, sub-sea and coastal installations for sustainable development in the maritime environment; or
- marine and offshore engineering, focusing on the design, deployment, commissioning and management of mechanical and mechanical-electrical systems associated with the shipping, marine and offshore oil and gas industries.
The final year of the program at AQF8 consists of capstone projects such as research project and design project. The integration of experiential learning, application of authentic real world learning to problem solving and professional skills will enable students to apply to these capstone honours projects.
Learning outcomes
Work placement
Students undertake paid work placements throughout the course. See the Co-operative Education unit list in the course structure for the full list of units in which work placement is undertaken.
Career outcomes
Naval Architecture
The Naval Architecture specialisation prepares students for careers in the shipbuilding industry, designing and constructing luxury super yachts, sailing and power craft, destroyers and patrol boats for the defence industry, underwater vehicles and submarines, and big ocean cruise liners; the high-speed ferry industry; insurance sector; and marine consultancy firms. It is also an excellent gateway to a career in government in the areas of commercial shipping, transport policy and administration.
Ocean Engineering
The Ocean Engineering specialisation prepares students for careers designing and managing the installation of offshore, sub-sea and coastal structures for the oil and gas industry, in particular the offshore industry; the renewable energy industry; coastal and environmental engineering; marine consultancy firms; and ocean research organisations.
Marine and Offshore Engineering
The Marine and Offshore Engineering specialisation is unique to AMC and focuses on the design, manufacture, deployment and commissioning of machinery and systems associated with the marine and offshore industries. Marine systems focus on the selection, deployment and commissioning of machinery, mechanical and electrical systems and operational systems designed to support the ship and underwater vehicle industry.
There are many exciting developments being driven by increased fuel costs and the need to lower the environmental impact of vessels and oil rigs. You can get involved in engineering alternative marine power systems or improving crude oil extraction to reduce emissions while maximising yield.

Entry requirements
Eligibility
We encourage you to apply for the courses you most want to study. If you’re not eligible to enter your chosen course right now, the UTAS admissions team will work with you to find the best pathway option.
Enquire online for advice on the application process and the available pathways to study at UTAS.
Domestic applicants
Domestic applicants who have recently completed secondary education (in the past two years)
Applicants are ranked by ATAR and offers made based on the number of places available. In 2019, the lowest ATAR to receive an offer into this course was 85.2. The lowest ATAR to receive an offer may change from year to year based on the number of applications we receive.
To be eligible for an offer, you must also have a satisfactory achievement in the following Tasmanian Senior Secondary (or equivalent) subjects:
- Mathematics Methods (MTM415117)
- One Year 12 Science subject (Physics (PHY415115) or Chemistry (CHM415115) preferred).
If you have not met this prerequisite, you will need to complete a UTAS foundation unit before you start your course.
We recommend school leavers include the Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours, course code P4F1 as a second preference when applying.
Domestic applicants with higher education study
To be eligible for an offer, you must have:
- Partially completed a Bachelor of Engineering (or equivalent) higher at any Australian or overseas higher education provider. You must have completed at least two units of study (equivalent to 25 UTAS credit points). If you have failed any units your application may be subject to further review before an offer is made; or
- Completed the UTAS Diploma of University Studies in Science or Engineering
You must also have studies or experience equivalent to satisfactory achievement in the following Tasmanian Senior Secondary subjects:
- Mathematics Methods (MTM415117)
- One Year 12 Science subject (Physics (PHY415115) or Chemistry (CHM415115) preferred).
If you have not met this prerequisite, you will need to complete a UTAS foundation unit before you start your course.
Domestic applicants with VET / TAFE study
Applicants are assessed on a case by case basis with reference to the combination of each individual’s skills and experience. Enquire online for advice on the application process and the available pathways to study at UTAS.
Domestic applicants with work and life experience
To be eligible for an offer, you must meet the University’s General Entry Requirements based on your prior studies and experience.
Special consideration
If your ability to access or participate in education has been affected by circumstances beyond your control, you can apply for special consideration as part of your application. We will consider a range of factors, including economic hardship, serious medical condition or disability.
We can only approve applications for special consideration where we are confident that you have the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in your studies. If your application is not approved, the UTAS admissions team will work with you to find the best alternative pathway to your chosen course. Special consideration is not available for international applicants.
International applicants
Admissions information for international applicants, including English language requirements, is available from the International Future Students site. You can also enquire online to check your eligibility.
Credit transfer
You may be eligible for advanced standing (i.e. credit points) in this degree if you:
- Have completed an award such as a Diploma or Advanced Diploma from TAFE or another institution;
- Are currently studying another Bachelor degree at the University or at another institution;
- Have completed a Bachelor degree at the University or an equivalent award from another institution.
How to apply for a credit transfer

For more information on credit transfers, contact us on on 1300 363 864 or enquire online.
Articulation from
Articulation to/from approved exit awards:
Students who have met the requirements for the award of an approved nested exit award (i.e. Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Maritime)) may exit and graduate with that award.
Students who have graduated with an approved nested exit award (Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Maritime)) may later articulate to a higher level nested award with full credit for all units successfully completed under the award, provided that the units were completed no more than 10 years prior to the year of graduation from the higher-level award. Please note, however, that full credit is contingent on continuation of the same specialisation that was commenced prior to exit. A student may return to the higher level award and pursue an alternate specialisation but will be required to complete all units required by that specialisation and may therefore not receive full credit for units that contributed to the prior specialisation.
Articulation from previous course versions:
Co-op Students who have commenced a pre-2018 Bachelor of Engineering course at the Australian Maritime College may also be eligible for full credit for all units successfully completed under the previous course version (towards the Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) (Co-operative Education) with Honours or an approved nested exit award), provided that the units were completed no more than 10 years prior to the year of graduation from the new award.
Articulation to/from Co-operative Education program:
Students may articulate between the BE(Spec)(Hons) and the BE(Spec)(Hons)(Co-op) courses with full credit by the end of year one.
Articulation from other, related courses:
Students who have commenced a Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours course or similar in another area at the University of Tasmania or at another institution may receive up to a maximum of 2 years (200 credit points) of advanced standing towards the BE(Spec)(Co-op)(Hons), subject to the approval of the Course Coordinator.
Articulation to
If you successfully complete this course, you may be eligible to apply for a range of other postgraduate courses including Graduate Certificates and Graduate Diplomas and Masters by coursework and research. Filter the Course list by Postgraduate to view the current courses available.
Alternative entry pathways
If you meet the minimum ATAR but haven't completed the required pre-requisite unit(s)
We offer foundation units to help you bridge the gap. Many run in spring and summer school so you can meet a prerequisite and not delay the start of your Bachelor level studies. HECS scholarships may also be available for domestic students.
- Visit the Foundation Unit page to find out more.
If you do not meet the minimum ATAR
You can apply for the Bachelor of Engineering (Specialisation) with Honours, offering the same choice of specialisations as this degree.
International Students
This program is currently not available to international students. If you wish to study science, you can apply for the Bachelor of Science (P3O) – exactly the same degree that is in this program.
Detailed Admissions Information
Detailed admissions information and advice for all undergraduate courses, including comprehensive, course-level student profiles, is available from UTAS Admissions.
