新增五所紐西蘭技術學院可提供工程科技學士學位課程

 

紐西蘭高等教育委員會正式宣布在2010年新增五所紐西蘭技術學院可提供工程科技學士學位課程 CPIT, Unitec, Manukau Institute of Technology, Weltec and Wintec等技術學院可以提供主修為土木電子與機械工程(Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering)的三年學位課程,Otago Polytechnic於2011年亦可提供上述學科之授課

工程學士學位課程為順應國際雪梨工程科技協定(Sydney Accord for Engineering Technologist)及為符合紐西蘭大量的就業市場需求而設計。

近幾年來,電機電學工程(electrotechnology)產業大幅成長,隨之產生的基礎建設新建案已在著手進行;有鑑於此, 紐西蘭必須訓練更多具備土木工程背景的畢業生以符合未來高度市場需求。未來市場上對於具備此三種工程技術於一身的工程師需求比例將增加,而目前僅為具備單一技術的工程師;相關課程學位的授與將有助於該產業之永續發展

New Bachelor of Engineering Technology Degree Available

Tuesday, 22 December 2009

New Zealand's Tertiary Education Commission has announced that the Bachelor of Engineering Technology has been approved for delivery in 2010 across five of New Zealand’s polytechnics and institutes of technology.

This approval confirms that CPIT, Unitec, Manukau Institute of Technology, Weltec and Wintec will be able to offer the three-year degree programme with majors in Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. Otago Polytechnic will be running the programme in 2011.

The Bachelor of Engineering Technology has been designed to comply with the international Sydney Accord for Engineering Technologists, and also to meet the high industry demand for engineering technologists throughout New Zealand.

According to industry, in recent years, there has been tremendous and sustained growth in the Electrotechnology sector, and with the number of new infrastructure projects currently being planned, New Zealand also needs highly trained graduates with Civil engineering qualifications. There is a need for a ratio of three engineering technologists to one engineer. The current ratio is one to one. The accreditation of this degree programme will ensure the ongoing sustainability of the industry both now and in the future.
