3773 Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) / Bachelor of Engineering Science Dual Award Program

This dual award program gives students the chance to develop their skills and knowledge in two areas of engineering - the major area of study leading to the professional qualification of a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) degree plus an additional area leading to a Bachelor of Engineering Science degree. Students have the opportunity to enhance their professional opportunities through developing cross-disciplinary skills and knowledge within a five year program.

 

With this dual degree program, students take the 168 units of credit core of the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) 3707 and the 96 units of credit core of the Bachelor of Engineering Science program 3706. Because of the overlap of 24 units of credit of engineering courses in both cores, the total units of credit required for completion is 240 UOC (5 years of full-time study or equivalent). The Faculty of Engineering administers the program, and delegates administration to the schools which offers the Engineering disciplines selected. Students should seek advice from the Faculty of Engineering Student Centre.
 
Students will need to complete the full BE (Hons) 3707 stream in their main discipline. Please look at the handbook page for the stream for further details.
 
Students will also complete 96 UOC of the courses in their secondary discipline though this includes courses which are double counted (e.g. first year maths courses, ENGG1000). Students must complete at least 24 UOC of courses that are Level 3 or above (36 UOC for Civil Engineering).
