UniSA Bachelor of Engineering

TAFE Advanced Diploma of
Engineering (Mechanical)
UniSA is the largest provider of TAFE transfer options in the State, receiving two-thirds of the
State’s commencing students who are admitted on the basis of their TAFE study.
UniSA has worked with TAFE for over twenty years, establishing extensive transfer and
pathway arrangements to enable TAFE students to pursue further tertiary study with us.
Most of our programs are offered on a part-time basis and many of our courses are offered
off-campus or online. Each of our campuses is equipped with the latest technology, with
updated IT facilities and wireless networking available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
UniSA is continually strengthening our proven ability to provide teaching and learning
experiences that develop graduates not only with the right skills, but the right attitude to
apply their knowledge in the world, both ethically and professionally.
Studying at UniSA also means you are tapping into a vast professional network through
our links with business, government, community and the professions. Whether you’re
studying to advance your career, or start a new one, the knowledge of our academics and
the practical experience you can gain in our programs can make all the difference to the way
you see your future.
We look forward to you becoming a proud member of our university community.
Almost 1800 TAFE SA graduates apply to continue their studies at universities in South
Australia each year, and the majority of these students apply to attend the University of
South Australia in disciplines as diverse as nursing, architecture, accounting and engineering.
The high proportion of TAFE SA graduates choosing the University of South Australia
is testament to how Pathways from TAFE SA to UniSA helps students understand the
requirements and process of applying for credit for prior learning.
This cooperative endeavour, between two of South Australia’s leading learning institutions,
helps to build the State’s skill base and, at the individual level, students are able to boost
their career opportunities.
I wholeheartedly support Pathways from TAFE SA to UniSA and encourage TAFE SA
graduates to explore opportunities to advance their skills with further studies.
