How to Apply

Applying to study engineering and technology at ETAS is straightforward. Our admissions team will guide you through each step. You can begin your study online, from anywhere in the world.

Before You Apply

Take a moment to:

• Choose the programme that fits your goals — Diploma, Bachelor’s (including the Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering), or Master’s.
• Check the entry requirements for that programme (see the programme page).
• Gather your supporting documents (prior qualifications, identification, and — if you are applying through recognition of prior learning — evidence of relevant experience).
• If your goal is professional registration or further study elsewhere, confirm the qualification suits that goal before you apply (see the Enrolment Terms for important information on recognition).

The Application Steps

Step 1 — Enquire or apply. Contact the WMU admissions team or complete the online application form. Tell us which programme you are interested in.

Step 2 — Membership and eligibility. Complete any membership and eligibility requirements for enrolment, as explained by the admissions team.

Step 3 — Submit your documents. Provide your prior qualifications and supporting documents, or your recognition-of-prior-learning evidence if you are applying via that route.

Step 4 — Confirmation and fees. Once your application is reviewed and accepted, you will receive confirmation and details of fees and payment. Your enrolment is confirmed once fees are settled or a payment arrangement is agreed.

Step 5 — Begin your studies. Access your online learning platform and begin. Online and blended delivery means you can start without relocating.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

If you have significant professional experience, you may be eligible to have that experience recognised toward a qualification through our Recognition of Prior Learning pathway. Speak to the admissions team to find out whether RPL suits you.

Entry Requirements

We admit both students entering directly from prior study and experienced working professionals. Applications are assessed on their merits — through formal academic qualifications, through recognition of prior learning and professional experience, or a combination of both.

Diploma in Information Technology

• Standard entry — completion of secondary education or a recognised equivalent, plus English proficiency.
• Professional entry — relevant work experience, assessed through recognition of prior learning, plus English proficiency.

Bachelor in Information Technology · Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering

• Standard entry — a recognised pre-university qualification, relevant diploma, or equivalent, plus English proficiency. Diploma graduates may enter with advanced standing where appropriate.
• Professional entry — relevant professional experience in an information technology, engineering or technical role, assessed through recognition of prior learning, plus English proficiency. Advanced standing may be available on the basis of assessed prior learning.

Master of Information Technology · Master of Engineering · Master of Science

• A recognised bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (CGPA 2.75 or equivalent)
• English proficiency — IELTS 6.0 / TOEFL iBT 80 or equivalent, or acceptable equivalents subject to admissions approval
• Relevant professional experience is an advantage but not mandatory
• An interview or portfolio review may be required for certain majors
• Professional entry: applicants with substantial relevant experience may be assessed through recognition of prior learning
• Master of Science additionally: evidence of research aptitude, and confirmed supervisor availability in the proposed research area

Accelerated Pathway

Strong academic performance in core and major courses, an academic advisor recommendation, and approval by the Faculty Postgraduate Committee. Specific performance thresholds are set out in the Programme Handbook and account for entry route, including recognition of prior learning.
