Re-engineering engineering
The Master of Applied Neuromorphic Engineering offers students an opportunity to partner with high-profile industry partners in an applied project or a research project, mentored by leading researchers from the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems at the MARCS Institute.
This program seeks to address the rapidly growing demand for alternative inter-disciplinary technologies, such as bio-inspired agile sensory systems, smart edge devices, and brain-inspired high performance computational platforms.
Students will be introduced to state-of-the-art neuromorphic hardware, sensors and algorithms in a highly structured way that increases their acumen for approaching new situations with creativity and initiative.
Note: All students who enrol in the 8124 Master of Applied Neuromorphic Engineering will have the option to transition to 8123 Master of Neuromorphic Engineering at the end of their first year if they meet the transition requirements.
Students may be required to travel between campuses to complete their subjects.
Save Money on Course Fees
Postgrad study just got more affordable with subsidised Commonwealth Supported Places available for this degree and eligible domestic students.

Professional accreditation will be sought from Engineers Australia for the Master of Neuromorphic Engineering program. Students will be subsequently eligible to apply for Chartered Professional Engineering registration upon successful completion of the required engineering practice period specified by Engineers Australia.
Study at Western's high tech Parramatta City campus.
Advance your knowledge with the Master of Neuromorphic Engineering at Western Sydney University. Being one of the first of its kind in the world, the program further equips students with the knowledge of neuromorphic perception and processing. Learn how neuromorphic systems and circuits have natural advantages over conventional solutions, namely noise tolerance, low power consumption, low latency output and high dynamic range sensing.
Students who have completed an Undergraduate Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related degree are encouraged to apply. All students who enrol in the 8124 Master of Applied Neuromorphic Engineering will have the option to transition to 8123 Master of Neuromorphic Engineering at the end of their first year.
