At UNSW, we pride ourselves on being a workplace where the best people come to do their best work.

The School offers a flexible, friendly working environment that is well-resourced.  It delivers research-informed education to undergraduate and graduate students and professionals who will be Australia’s future technology decision makers.  The School’s engineering and computing education programs are accredited and globally recognised.

The engineering workplace of the future will be different from that of the past, and that future will require a broader range of people for success.  The SEIT community is committed to changing the culture of engineering education by developing a more well-rounded engineer equipped with the emotional intelligence to perform in the 21^st century.  Creation of a new type of learning environment requires a different range of staff that can support deep technical learning while helping to develop the whole engineer.  We seek out committed educators and researchers that have the knowledge, teaching skills, and empathy to strengthen that environment.

The School’s research strengths blend with its teaching disciplines to create a tightly woven environment of research-informed education.  The School hosts the concentrated activities of UNSW Canberra Space, UNSW IFCyber, and the UNSW Capability Systems Centre that highlight the aspiration of the School and UNSW Canberra in multidisciplinary, world-leading research and teaching.
