Our engineering programs are accredited by Engineers Australia and graduates are eligible to apply for graduate membership with Engineers Australia. Graduates of the program are recognised as Professional Engineers in Australia and in countries that are members of the Washington Accord.
VU supports Engineers Australia as a principal partner.
Our Bachelor of Information Technology is accredited by the Australian Computer Society (ACS).
ACS performs an important role in ensuring continued high quality of education for the Information & Communications Technology (ICT) profession in Australia. To ensure courses contain the requirements of the ICT profession for initial professional practice, ACS provides an accreditation program. ACS accredited courses are a common pathway to the ICT career in Australia. For international students, ACS is the Australian Government’s official authority for assessing the ICT skills of migration visa applicants.
Our College has Course Advisory Committees (CACs) that meet regularly to provide expertise and advice on quality, currency and future-readiness of our courses. CAC members include external members from industry and other tertiary institutions to ensure that the courses align with industry needs and trends.

College of Engineering & Science students are often involved in community and school projects are part of their course.
Some recent examples are:
We have a number of interactive programs for secondary school students considering a career in engineering or science. The programs are designed to provide students with an overview of the practical course elements required to support these occupations. We run practical classes in VCE Chemistry and Genetics. Students can also experience what it's like to be a chemist or engineer for a day!
