AUR30616 Certificate III in Light Vehicle Mechanical Technology
Achieving a passing grade in a unit in this course does not equate to evidence of competency. While this course of study delivers the underpinning skills and knowledge aligned to a Certificate III qualification, it is the student's responsibility to gain the industry experience necessary to demonstrate competency in those skills and knowledge. Evidence of competency will be provided to CQU before any VET competencies or qualifications can be awarded.
The More Details tab has a link to the Course Planners for this course.
Note that full-time students generally enrol in 24cp per term and part-time students (working more than 20 hours a week) generally enrol in a half-load i.e. 12cp per term.
In the Core structure, Fundamentals of Professional Engineering Practice is a 12cp unit which assists your transition to university study. All other Core units are 6cp.

In the mechanical major, you will study the following intermediate and advanced units.
Available units | ||
---|---|---|
Students must complete the following compulsory units: | ||
ENEG12007 | Creative Engineering | |
ENEM12009 | Structural Mechanics | |
ENEM12010 | Engineering Dynamics | |
ENEM12006 | Fluid Mechanics | |
ENEM13012 | Maintenance Engineering | |
ENEM13014 | Thermodynamics | |
ENEM13018 | Materials and Manufacturing |
In addition to the units listed above, there are five (5) elective units in the mechanical major. To successfully graduate the BAppTech at least 6 units (at 6cp) must be completed at undergraduate level 2 and 6 units (at 6cp) must be completed at undergraduate level 3. Four of the compulsory major units are at undergraduate level 2, so at least two (2) of the electives must be at undergraduate level 2. Three of the compulsory major units and the two final year project units are at undergraduate level 3, so at least one (1) of the electives must be at undergraduate level 3.
Contact your Course Adviser to select the ideal electives to include in your course of study. If you have not completed Mathematics B or equivalent, you may be required to either do some bridging mathematics study or an introductory mathematics unit, as one of your electives.
At the end of your course, you will complete a final year technology project over two terms. The final year project confirms your ability to work as an applied technologist.
Please see the More Details tab for information on enrolling in the final year project units.
