Apply your problem-solving knowledge to come up with solutions to real-world engineering projects!

2. Compete with the best

Imagine being part of the team that brings home a world record! You’ll get the chance to compete in projects that are internationally award-winning and record-breaking.

3. Professional and leadership development

By working on a real-life engineering problem, you will be able to practice and develop your leadership skills along the way. 

Through their involvement in Student Projects, UNSW Engineering graduates have found a career working in engineering consulting,��and project management companies. These organisations recognise that our students have an enhanced set of skills to apply to all engineering work including technology development, creativity, communication, partnership engagement, and teamwork.
