Engineering involves the application of science. Many engineers are fascinated by scientific investigation and eager to enhance their understanding of the pure sciences. Likewise, many scientists wish to see their theories applied towards new technologies. If either of these describes you, then this double degree course is ideal for you. Personalise your study from nine engineering specialisations and over twenty areas of science. The result is an educational experience uniquely tailored to meet your interests and aspirations. The various combinations offer diversity, flexibility and numerous career options. The first year provides the scientific and design foundations for engineering. It focuses on real-life problems to help you understand the interaction between engineering and society. It also introduces the range of engineering disciplines. You will pursue your specialist engineering discipline from year two. The combinations of engineering and science fields are almost limitless. You might combine environmental engineering with atmospheric science, ecology and conservation biology, genetics, plant sciences, zoology, chemistry, computational science, geographical science or statistics. Or you could augment your aerospace degree with studies in physics or astrophysics, pair mechanical engineering with applied mathematics, or combine chemical engineering with geosciences. The choice is yours.

Structure

You must complete 144 credit points comprising all of Part A, six credit points from Part B, all of Part C and all of Part D as described in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).

In choosing the 96 credit points of the Bachelor of Science listed study over Part A and Part B, you must ensure that you complete six science listed units (36 credit points) at Level 1, and ten science listed units (60 credited points) at Levels 2 and 3 with a minimum of four (24 credit points) at Level 3. You will complete the mathematics and statistics requirement of the Bachelor of Science when you complete ENG1005 Engineering mathematics in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours). In its place, you must complete an additional science unit. The psychology extended major is not available in this double degree.
