Engineers Australia believes an urgent transition in the construction and built environment sectors is required to meet the proposed ambitious goals within the designated time frame. We are committed to supporting the South Australian Government to achieve its climate change targets.

Engineers Australia supports the commitment to improving level crossing safety, by improving illumination and visibility of trains, and calls for the code to be mandatory and implemented as soon as possible.  

Engineers Australia commends the Victorian Government for developing a strong strategy, our responses to the government's consultation provide solutions for consideration based on research and consultations we have conducted with our expert members.

The task of decarbonising the transport sector is urgent and Engineers Australia commends the government for focussing on this important element of the energy transition. In this submission we call for measures to address the upfront costs of EVs and the availability of charging infrastructure, among other factors.

Engineers Australia’s submission to the Safe and Responsible AI in Australia discussion paper.

Engineers Australia's response to the federal government's statement Developing Australia’s Science and Research Priorities and National Science – a National Conversation Starter. We outline a brief summary of the most important challenges in engineering for Australia.

Developing Australia’s domestic capability in digital technologies is a must. Engineers Australia calls for government to look at the skills and resource requirements needed to upskill or reskill the workforce to achieve advanced manufacturing capability.

Engineers Australia's submission to the Australian Universities Accord, Aligning education with Australia's national interests, highlights the importance of engineers in our current and future workforce. We outline the significance of higher education in developing engineers to support Australia's sovereign capability and prosperity. 

Securing Australian cyber space and building a robust and resilient cyber ecosystem will require a comprehensive, agile, and inclusive strategy. Engineers Australia’s submission offers the view of its expert members on what the Government could do to achieve the goal of securing our nation’s cyber ecosystem and shift the dial to move cyber security front of mind. 

This submission provides Engineers Australia's response to the Energy Security Board's Capacity mechanism High-level Design Paper. 

Information, Telecommunications and Electronics Engineering (ITEE) deals with scientific and engineering design to develop computer modelling tools, broadband capability, improve telecommunications systems, hardware and software, systems for media broadcasting and sound, and sophisticated electronics. 

Petroleum engineering deals with four main sub-disciplines which are reservoir, drilling, production, and formation evaluation engineering.

Naval architecture deals with the safe design and specification of marine vessels and structures. The naval architect can also be involved in the construction, repair, refit or operation of such marine vessels and structures. 

Mechatronics engineering is multidisciplinary and deals with integrating electrical and mechanical systems. It can include a combination of robotics, electronics, computing, telecommunications, systems, control, product engineering, and electronics to create functional, smart products.

Mechanical engineering deals with the application of the principles of engineering and physics with the study of advanced materials for the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. 

Civil engineering deals with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment. Civil engineers generally specialise in one of a number of sub-disciplines. 

Chemical engineering deals with the application of physical sciences (physics and chemistry) and life sciences (microbiology and biochemistry), together with applied mathematics and economics to produce, transform, transport, and properly use chemicals, materials and energy.
