Overview
This combined degree is designed to provide opportunities for students interested in science, the scientific basis of engineering and technology, and the technology itself. Graduates of this course work as cutting-edge professionals where science and engineering interact dynamically.
There is a strong interrelation between the progress of engineering and developments in science, and a demonstrated need for professionals with a strong understanding and experience in both areas.
Students have the option of undertaking honours in science, or an additional two internships to gain the Diploma in Professional Engineering Practice, or both.
This combined degree can be completed in less time than would be required to complete the two degrees separately.
Course aims
This course aims to produce graduates with professional qualifications in science and engineering who are well prepared to pursue a career in either field, or one that combines the skills of both. Students develop valuable skills highly prized by employers, including the technological expertise to understand scientific problems and the design skills to implement solutions.
Career options
Career options depend on the majors and subjects chosen. Options include research, design and development, and scientific management. Graduates work in industry or government, in areas such as biotechnology, communications, energy and resource exploration, environmental protection, medical technology, molecular biology and materials technology, nanotechnology and transportation.

SCI = Science course intended learning outcomes (CILOs)
Admission requirements
Applicants must have completed an Australian Year 12 qualification, Australian Qualifications Framework Diploma, or equivalent Australian or overseas qualification at the required level.
Current school leavers are advised to complete the Year 12 Engineering and IT Questionnaire. The questionnaire allows applicants to demonstrate their strong motivation to study engineering or IT at UTS and may assist applicants whose ATAR falls short of the required cut-off by up to three points.
Non-current school leavers are advised to complete the employment question on their UAC application as adjustment factors may be applied on the basis of relevant work experience.
The English proficiency requirement for international students or local applicants with international qualifications is: Academic IELTS: 6.5 overall with a writing score of 6.0; or TOEFL: paper based: 550-583 overall with TWE of 4.5, internet based: 79-93 overall with a writing score of 21; or AE5: Pass; or PTE: 58-64; or CAE: 176-184.
Eligibility for admission does not guarantee offer of a place.
International students
Applicants who successfully complete a recognised pathway program are also eligible to apply.
Visa requirement: To obtain a student visa to study in Australia, international students must enrol full time and on campus. Australian student visa regulations also require international students studying on student visas to complete the course within the standard full-time duration. Students can extend their courses only in exceptional circumstances.
Assumed knowledge
HSC Mathematics Extension 1; Physics; and English (Standard).
English (Advanced) is recommended. For the civil engineering majors, Chemistry is recommended. For the software engineering major, a sound knowledge of the fundamentals of programming is recommended. For other majors, at least two units of science relevant to the major chosen is recommended.
Recognition of prior learning
Students who have previously undertaken relevant study at a recognised tertiary education institution may be eligible for recognition of prior learning (RPL) if the subjects completed are deemed by the faculty to be equivalent to subjects in the course. Study completed more than 10 years prior to the date of admission cannot be recognised. Limits apply to the number of credit points of RPL granted.
Course duration and attendance
The course duration is five years full time, 10 years part time, or six years full time with honours.
Full-time attendance involves up to 24 hours each week at the university. Part-time attendance involves up to 12 hours each week at the university. It is expected that employers will release part-time students for at least one half-day a week for attendance at classes.
Course structure
Students are required to complete 246 credit points, comprising 168 credit points in engineering and 78 credit points in science. The engineering component consists of core (48 credit points), major (field of practice) (114 credit points) and professional engineering practice (6 credit points). The science component consists of a science major (78 credit points).
The engineering major is selected at the time of admission; however, it is possible to apply to change the major at a later date. Students may choose not to take a designated major and instead take a flexible program comprising subjects from different areas of engineering as approved by the director, teaching and learning.
Graduation from the science component of the combined degree is not possible prior to completion of all components of the combined degree. Students wishing to graduate with a Bachelor of Science prior to completion of the engineering component of the combined degree must apply for transfer to the Bachelor of Science (C10242) single degree program where they must complete all requirements for the stand-alone single degree version.
Similarly, if a student wishes to graduate from the engineering component of the combined degree prior to completion of the science component they must apply for transfer to the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (C09066) single degree program where they must complete all requirements for the stand-alone single degree version, including the Engineering Work Experience subject.
Further, students wishing to graduate from the engineering component of the combined degree prior to completion of the science component must have completed at least 60 credit points of the science major (CBK90586).
Industrial training/professional practice
Students are required to undertake a minimum of 12 weeks of engineering work experience.
A Diploma in Professional Engineering Practice is also available; it requires the additional completion of two six-month internships and the professional engineering practice program.

Rules and regulations
Commencing students are required to complete the mathematics readiness survey to determine the most appropriate first-year mathematics subject to undertake.
Levels of award
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) may be awarded with first or second class honours, which does not require an additional honours year.
Honours
An honours program in science is available, which involves an extra year of full-time study. The honours program is designed to introduce students to more advanced coursework and to research work in science. It allows selected students to continue with postgraduate studies if desired and enhances their employment prospects.
Transfer between UTS courses
Students in this combined degree may transfer to the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) Diploma in Professional Engineering Practice (C09067). International students may transfer to the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (C09066).
Professional recognition
The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) is accredited by Engineers Australia at the Graduate Professional Engineer level. The degree is recognised internationally by signatories to the Washington Accord.
Depending on the discipline chosen, students may also be eligible for entry to other relevant professional associations.
