Graduate Certificate in Industrial Automation and Machine Learning

Our Virtual Open Week is our biggest live and online event yet. A range of sessions will be presented across multiple days during the week of Monday the 15th of September 2025. Register for any sessions that interest you to learn more about us.

• Industrial Automation Introduction
• Machine Learning for Industrial Automation
• Industrial Process Control Systems
• Industrial Data Communications

• Upon completion of this graduate certificate, graduates will have communication (oral and written) skills to investigate, analyse and present technical ideas, information and solutions on Industrial Automation problems and projects in a professional, independent and organised manner, individually and in teams, within the engineering domain.
• Graduates of this program will be able to identify, critically analyse and creatively solve intellectually complex, specialised engineering problems in industrial process control systems, industrial automation and process control systems relevant to Industrial Automation, individually or in groups, underpinned by critical analysis, innovation, evaluation, synthesis, accountability, machine learning and sound engineering judgement of solutions relevant to the engineering domain.
• The graduates will use skills in established systematic design and project management methodologies to source, analyse, synthesise, design and communicate projects and information individually or in collaboration with others as team members and leaders.

Students who have a Graduate Certificate in Industrial Automation and Machine Learning can enhance their ability and knowledge in the industrial automation field, enabling them to gain and hold employment.

Graduates will be able to work in a wide range of manufacturing, renewable, power, industrial, chemical, military, mineral process and mining industries in mid-career, technical management or senior level role.

Regardless of whether you are a domestic or international student, when you study on-campus with EIT, our supportive blended learning model, and small class sizes encourage you to advance your technical knowledge and remain engaged in your studies while forming global networks.

We deliver our on-campus degrees via a unique methodology that uses an international pool of expert lecturers, and dedicated learning support officers, and provides you access to cutting-edge simulation software alongside physical and virtual laboratories to test concepts and deepen your understanding of program content.

EIT has campuses across Australia in Perth (Western Australia), Melbourne (Victoria), and Brisbane (Queensland).

Our graduate certificates take six months to complete. We deliver our online graduate certificates on a part-time intensive basis. Part-time Students are expected to spend approximately 10-15 hours per week per unit learning the program material and completing assessments. This includes attending tutorials.
