<p>This advanced unit requires students to complete their capstone project for Master of Maintenance and Reliability Engineering (MRE) and Graduate Diploma of Engineering Maintenance Management. In this unit a student is expected to undertake a complex project involving an industry-based maintenance and reliability engineering and/or asset management problem. Students will need to apply relevant knowledge and skills acquired in other maintenance and reliability units. Students will be required to scope their project tailored to an industry setting, undertake research activities, produce a technical report and present their findings based on project outcomes for reducing costs and risks and enhancing asset performance. This is a compulsory unit for Master of Maintenance and Reliability Engineering (MRE) and Graduate Diploma of Engineering Maintenance Management.</p>

FedTASK
FedTASK
<p>Federation University recognises that students require key transferable employability skills to prepare them for their future workplace and society. FedTASKs (<strong>T</strong>ransferable <strong>A</strong>ttributes <strong>S</strong>kills and <strong>K</strong>nowledge) provide a targeted focus on five key, transferable Attributes, Skills, and Knowledge that are embedded within curriculum, developed gradually towards successful measures and interlinked with cross-discipline and co-operative learning opportunities.</p>
