Overview
This combined degree (two testamurs) provides students with the opportunity to complete the core and major components of both the engineering and business degrees. This course is essentially the same as the Bachelor of Engineering Bachelor of Business (C10065) combined degree except for the additional requirement of two internships and the completion of the Engineering Practice Program. The Engineering Practice Program is integrated throughout the course.
For graduates choosing to practise as engineers, the business knowledge is invaluable in providing a sound foundation for entrepreneurial initiatives and the commercialisation of engineering innovations.
This combined degree can be completed in less time than would be required to complete the two degrees separately.
Career options
Career options include a business career applying advanced technology in commercial settings or practise as an engineer where business knowledge helps to ensure success in commercialisation of engineering innovations. The course provides excellent training for senior management roles.
Admission requirements
Entry to individual Engineering majors is subject to UAI requirements.
Assumed knowledge
Mathematics Extension 1; Physics; and English Standard.
English Advanced is recommended.
Course duration and attendance
The course duration is six years of full-time study.
Course structure
The program comprises a total of 252 credit points, made up of 162 credit points relating to the Bachelor of Engineering Diploma in Engineering Practice and 90 credit points relating to the Bachelor of Business.
The Engineering component of this course is made up of subjects selected from the engineering core, the Engineering Practice Program and the engineering fields of practice (majors).
The Business component is made up of core business subjects and a business major.
Industrial training/professional practice
The Diploma in Engineering Practice requires the completion of two six-month internships and the Engineering Practice Program.
