Studying business in today's ever-changing, globally-connected and technologically-charged world is an exciting prospect.

Are you a disruptor, a potential entrepreneur who sees opportunity at every turn? Perhaps you are a global citizen, connecting with like minds across the world. Or an innovator; ready to transform business with the latest approaches in cyber, blockchain or digital technologies. Then again, maybe you are more focused on creating social impact, or ensuring sustainability goals are set and met in industry. With so many outcomes from your business studies, the only thing you need to find is your path.

Understand how businesses, people, and governments interact locally and globally. Learn the necessary skills to tackle society's biggest challenges such as climate change, equality, and poverty. Develop applied analytical expertise important to a variety of career paths.

The Master of Cyber Security aims to equip you with the mathematical, technical and business tools to secure an organisation’s information systems.

Secure systems and networks are a vital responsibility for organisations of all sizes and in our increasingly connected world, it is more important than ever. From the latest internet worm to identity theft, danger is no more than a click away.

You will learn about local area network (LAN) security, cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard, RSA, smartcards, biometrics, ethical hacking and information systems risk management.

This degree includes opportunities for cyber security internships with industry organisations, both large and small.

Acquire extensive knowledge in the fields of electronic, computer systems, communication and network engineering with the ability to manage teams of technical and professional staff.

RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering) (Honours) / Bachelor of Business will prepare you to become an engineering manager.

You will graduate from this degree ready to move into an engineering management role either relatively early in your career or after a period of experience as a professional engineer, rather than having to undertake further study.

The engineering degree will develop knowledge and skills that will enable you to find better solutions to challenges in the design, construction and maintenance of electronic hardware, embedded systems, firmware development, communication and network systems.

This could include the automation of electrical and electronic systems; audio and visual information acquisition, digital signal processing; human-machine interaction, industrial or medical instrumentation and monitoring; reconfigurable logic development; distributed computing and provision of security for computer systems and networks.

You will also learn to design and build devices and systems that transfer and store information via radio frequency or optical fibre transmissions, and manage and secure the flow of information through such systems.  

The degree in business will develop your skills in the field of business management. The business degree is flexible, allowing you to develop generalist business knowledge or undertake more focused studies through a choice of majors, minors and cross-disciplinary study options.

You will join an active research community and work with academics, peers and partner organisations who have demonstrated research success in a range of specialities, including:

• Advanced materials
• Aerodynamics
• Aerospace vehicle design
• Air traffic management systems
• Airframe systems
• Airworthiness
• Aviation human factors engineering
• Aviation logistics
• Aviation technology
• Avionic systems
• Ergonomics aviation logistics
• Maintenance and operations
• Multi-modal transportation engineering
• Propulsion
• Stability and control
• Structures
• Sustainable aviation technologies
• Systems engineering
• Unmanned aerial vehicles.

RMIT researchers deliver high-impact and influential outcomes. Success is demonstrated through excellent performance in university rankings, with a ranking as well above world standard in the Australian Research Council Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) 2015 round.

RMIT is also ranked in the top 100 universities in the fields of aerospace and mechanical engineering in the 2014 QS World University rankings.

RMIT researchers contribute to RMIT’s flagship aerospace research centre, the Sir Lawrence Wackett Aerospace Centre.

Additionally, there are active collaborations with other national and international institutes, centres, groups and partners, including:

• Advanced Manufacturing CRC
• Centre for Additive Manufacturing
• Centre for Innovative Structures and Materials (CISM)
• CRC for Advanced Automotive Technologies
• CRC for Advanced Composite Structures
• Defence Materials Technology Centre

In this program you will develop advanced skills in order to critically analyse information, synthesise knowledge, and communicate your research findings effectively for a variety of career settings.

This master degree may be undertaken in a project or thesis mode.

You can specialise in:

• IT policy
• Knowledge management
• Mobile technologies
• Digital economy
• E-health
• Green IT
• Human-computer interaction
• Systems evaluation and modeling.

With RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Aerospace Engineering) (Honours), you'll design aircraft and spacecraft, develop propulsion systems, research new materials, test new engines, develop rockets and plan maintenance subjects.

In this internationally recognised degree you'll gain specialist skills in analysing, designing, and operating sophisticated aeronautics and astronautics hardware and software.

You'll study a broad range of areas such as aerodynamics, aerospace materials and structures, aerospace systems, design, dynamics and control, thermodynamics, and propulsion.

Minor options in Aircraft and Spacecraft Technologies will allow you to tailor the degree to suit your areas of interest and enhance your career opportunities.

Sustainability issues are built into multiple areas of the aerospace engineering degree. This increases your employability as there is increasing demand for long-term engineering solutions in this industry. You'll also learn to appreciate the wider social implications of the engineering profession.
