Master of Engineering (Safety, Risk & Reliability)

Modern engineers face an intriguing set of challenges when tackling uncertainty, and they have developed some of the smartest methods, tools, techniques, and approaches for understanding system safety, risk, and reliability. The Master of Engineering (Safety, Risk, and Reliability) is the ideal gateway to boost your capacity to tackle these real-world, increasingly complex issues. Upon completion of this program, you will gain skills and knowledge in the latest and developing technologies in safety, risk, and reliability.

A powerful force is driving industrial growth and change, and it’s only getting stronger. That force? Uncertainty. Society increasingly demands more efficient transport, more power production, safer energy exploration and processing, less waste, smarter products, and of course, all at lower costs. All these demands display uncertainty and how we need to manage it through engineering, science, and technology.

In the 21st century, industry will routinely deal with novel hazardous processing technologies, complex energy grid load-balancing from renewables, driverless cars, artificial vision to augment control, and feedback in sub-sea exploration – and the infinitesimal scale of nanotechnologies in bionic engineering. Currently, people are at the heart of many hazardous work environments, exposed to the consequences of uncontrolled events. Still, soon, artificial intelligence will afford more human tasks to be automated (and present a host of newer risks in exchange for the retired ones). This progress has to be examined in systematic terms – terms that integrate our understandings of technical fallibility, human error, and political decision-making.

This program has been carefully designed to accomplish three key goals. First, a set of fundamental concepts is described in useful, manageable ways that encourage rapid and integrated knowledge-acquisition.

Second, that knowledge is applied in creative and imaginative ways to afford practical, career-oriented advantages. Third, the learning that results from the integration of knowledge and application is encouraged by activities and projects, culminating in a project thesis that is the capstone of the program.

This carefully designed learning journey will develop an accurate understanding and also exercise the participant’s creativity and design-thinking capabilities. Employers are hungry for these skills, and program graduates can expect a significant advantage when interacting with employers, clients, consultants, and fellow engineering peers.

Current Vacancies

Developer/Systems Administrator

The role consists of the development, support, and management of EIT’s digital suite. You will be an energetic and enthusiastic individual, working directly with a great technical team based in Perth and the Philippines, but will be required to interface with people globally. EIT’s product offerings are constantly evolving; therefore, it is important to be aware of current development trends globally to ensure that the implementations are well revised.  

Compliance Officer

Reporting to the Accreditation & Compliance Manager, this role has responsibility for coordinating and maintaining the quality assurance and compliance status of the RTO and HEP (Higher Education Provider).

Your success will be underpinned by your deep understanding of key RTO and HEP principles, an ability to synthesise and craft readable documents such as policies, and your ability to build effective relationships and negotiate desired outcomes to achieve EIT’s objectives.  We are looking for demonstrated experience in doing this type of work.

Instructors & Lecturers

The Engineering Institute of Technology offers outstanding practical engineering and technology education; from Professional Certificates of Competency through to Masters Degrees. We are currently seeking engineering lecturers and instructors, with extensive experience in industry to deliver units in our Professional Certificate of Competency, Diploma, Advanced Diploma, Degree and Masters online courses and programs.   EIT’s programs are taught using unique synchronous, online technologies including live interactive sessions over the internet, combined with practical exercises completed using remote laboratories and simulation software. 

Successful candidates will need to demonstrate an established industry profile, a commitment to excellence and ideally have teaching experience. You can be located anywhere as instructors and lecturers will be required to deliver online via webinars (approximately 1 hour in length). The Engineering Institute of Technology will provide all course material. You will simply require a computer with reliable internet connection, a headset with a high quality microphone and a clear and enthusiastic speaking voice. You may be required to teach outside of standard business hours.
