Bachelor of Engineering Honours and Bachelor of Science (Health)

Succeed in today's dynamic world by developing engineering expertise alongside the critical insights and research skills offered by the health sciences.

This combined degree emphasises the strong scientific foundations of engineering.

It will expand your career options by giving you two qualifications with just one extra year of study.You can combine any engineering streams (Aeronautical, Biomedical, Chemical and Biomolecular, Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronic, and Software) with a Bachelor of Science (Health).

You will develop an extensive knowledge of your chosen stream along with technical, analytical and research skills to lead innovation across continually evolving industries.As part of your engineering degree you will undertake the award-winning Professional Engagement Program enabling you to change your approach to learning through self-reflection and extra-curricular activities throughout your degree.The Bachelor of Science (Health) provides a thorough grounding in health and health systems at the local, national and global levels.

You will graduate with the ability to navigate the complexity of health in different sociocultural, political and economic contexts, and develop core skills in critical thinking, complex problem-solving, communication and empathy.

You will complete a major in health with core units in areas such as human biology, psychology and eHealth, and gain broad knowledge of healthcare and its latest developments before specialising in your area of interest and pursuing an optional second major.
