• Women in Engineering
  Female students meet several times a year with guest speakers discussing issues of special interest.
• Field Trips
  Students undertake field trips in every stage of their studies to such places as Snowy Mountains Hydro-Electric Scheme, survey camp, Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO), construction sites, factories, BHP.
• Work Experience
  After three years' study, engineering students spend several weeks at a civilian engineering establishment gaining practical experience.
