Program Description

The combined degree program of five years full-time study enables a student to qualify for the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Science (BE BSc). Every session of the program contains only the standard 24 Units of Credit of courses and hence workload should not be greater than in a single degree program. The combined degree program is administered by the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering.

For the Bachelor of Science the student selects a second plan based on an approved major sequence of courses. A major sequence is defined to comprise 42 Units of Credit of courses at Levels 2 and 3 with at least 18 Units of Credit being at Level 3. Overall, in the combined degree program, at least 84 Units of Credit must be taught by Science.

In some BSc majors, science courses specific to engineering degrees, e.g. PHYS1169 Physics 1CME, MATH2029 Engineering Mathematics 2A, will be exchanged for courses within that major.

The general layout for the combined degree is given below. Detailed outlines for each combination of engineering and science are available from the School.

Students who commence the program and do not complete the Engineering component may take out a BSc degree on completion of all Science requirements. Similarly, students not wishing to complete the BSc degree, may transfer to a plan under the single degree Engineering program and be given appropriate credit for courses satisfactorily completed.
