Graduate Diploma in Neuromorphic Engineering (exit only)

Western Sydney University

Graduate Diploma in Neuromorphic Engineering is an exit point on completion of 80 credit points of study selected from the 8124 Master of Applied Neuromorphic Engineering subjects as indicated in the program structure.

Neuromorphic Engineering is an exciting inter-disciplinary field combining aspects from electrical engineering, computer science, neuroscience, signal processing and mathematics. The Master of Neuromorphic Engineering offers students an opportunity to partner with high-profile industry partners in an applied project or a research project, mentored by leading researchers from the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems at the MARCS Institute. This program seeks to address the rapidly growing demand for alternative inter-disciplinary technologies, such as bio-inspired agile sensory systems, smart edge devices, and brain-inspired high performance computational platforms. The students will be introduced to state-of-the-art neuromorphic hardware, sensors and algorithms in a highly structured way that increases their acumen for approaching new situations with creativity and initiative.

All students will enrol in the 8124 Master of Applied Neuromorphic Engineering and have the option to transition to 8123 Master of Neuromorphic Engineering at the end of their first year. A student completing the two-year degree may apply to pursue a PhD. Two exit options (Graduate Certificate in Neuromorphic Engineering and Graduate Diploma in Neuromorphic Engineering) are also available.
