Careers
The Industrial Technologies form an important part of the Australian economy, and work done within the various areas contributes significantly to our daily lifestyle. The construction of buildings, automobiles, furniture and many other items from timber, metals and plastics provides us with houses, means of transport, and many of the comforts of home. The graphics and multimedia industries provide the means for visualising three dimensional structures and contribute considerably to our entertainment industry. The application of electronics to a vast array of consumer items and industrial processes makes this technology invaluable to us as consumers.
