Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering

Overview

Key Features 

The research mission of the Department of Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering (ECSE) at Monash University is to focus on today’s challenges; we provide innovative solutions based on a strong understanding of all areas of electrical and electronic engineering. Computational power increases every year, and electronics are key to many new product innovations and product improvements. Our researchers are developing innovative solutions to some of our greatest challenges.

Our researchers generally have an interest in covering several groups across our key research themes, both within and external to the department. For example, many biological engineering applications (such as robotic surgery and our $15m bionic eye project), call upon a mix of robotics, signal processing, power systems and communications. All of our research relies on a deep understanding of the relationships between the time and frequency domains - waveforms and musical notes in common parlance - and these relationships are exploited by applying powerful computation (computer systems, usually embedded on a single chip) to create leading-edge technologies across all areas.

PhD and Masters by Research scholarship opportunities are currently available with leading engineering researchers who are involved in pioneering research across different research themes. Our graduate research degrees give you an opportunity to conduct research that is transforming the future. Take this opportunity to make an impact and solve real world issues in a stimulating, supportive environment and take your knowledge to new heights and expand your career options.
