ENEM28005 - Introduction to Engineering Asset and Maintenance Management

General Information

Unit Synopsis

Engineers are often required to evaluate the performance of various types of engineering assets. The ability to analyse maintenance data and develop effective maintenance plans are important skills for today’s engineers. This unit will introduce you to asset maintenance standards, strategies, philosophies, and procedures, including the basic principles of asset management systems. You will investigate and report on key concepts relating to asset and maintenance management in engineering organisations. You will learn the fundamentals of asset maintenance and management strategies, reliability, and life cycle engineering of assets to maximise and optimise their value. You will gain insight into the governing ISO standards and their application in real-world scenarios. You will learn how to use different diagnostic tools such as failure mode effect and critical analysis, reliability-centred maintenance, and collect and analyse maintenance data in several engineering contexts. These learning objectives will be achieved through successful completions of online quizzes, a group project, and an individual assignment. This knowledge will help to predict the future reliability performance of operating assets, as well as to develop and recommend appropriate maintenance strategies for different engineering assets.

Attendance Requirements

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes – in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).

Assessment Overview

Recommended Student Time Commitment

Each 6-credit Postgraduate unit at CQUniversity requires an overall time commitment of an average of 12.5 hours of study per week, making a total of 150 hours for the unit.

Assessment Tasks

This information will not be available until 8 weeks before term.
To see assessment details from an earlier availability, please search via a previous term.

This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%).
