Advanced Diploma of Engineering Technology - Electrical

Apply engineering knowledge to design and support electrical systems in practice

This qualification covers the competencies required to design, validate, and evaluate electrical equipment and systems, and to provide technical advice and sales support.

The UEE62122 Advanced Diploma of Engineering Technology – Electrical is a nationally recognised qualification in the Australian VET sector. It provides advanced knowledge and practical skills for designing, testing, and managing complex electrical systems.

Learners develop expertise in key areas including electrical design, power distribution, protection systems, automation, renewable energy integration, and industrial control. The course also emphasises compliance with Australian Standards, workplace safety, and sustainability.

As a graduate, you may become responsible for electrical and control support, and administering and upgrading electrical facilities in small, medium or large-sized enterprises.

You’ll gain skills in the installation, maintenance and administration of electrical and automation infrastructure. These will be applicable to a wide range of business, manufacturing and operational occupations where electrical technology underpins the business operations.
