Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Bachelor of Science

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Bachelor of Science combines professional engineering skills, including management, communications, teamwork and problem solving, with a major study in Science.

It is a combination of any of the engineering majors with Cell and Molecular Biology, Chemistry, Geology, Physical Geography, Environment or Ecology and Conservation BiologyDouble degrees aim to broaden a student's knowledge and skill base and improve career options in competitive, increasingly interactive fields.

The programs are designed to enhance a student's educational, academic and professional qualifications whilst minimising the costs of their studies.

Students must seek advice and approval from both Faculties before enrolment.

Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Bachelor of Science must complete a total of 264 credit points made up of:

1. At least 192 credit points of Engineering subjects, consisting of:
2. Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) - Core Subjects;
3. Subjects leading to at least one of the majors* from the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours):
4. At least 12 weeks of approved professional engineering experience during the course**
5. At least 72 credit points of Science subjects, consisting of subjects leading to at least one of the following majors* from the Bachelor of Science
6. Cell and Molecular Biology
7. Chemistry
8. Geology
9. Physical Geography
10. Environment
11. Ecology and Conservation Biology
12. No more than 60 credit points shall be for 100-level subjects.

• *Note: students completing a major study in Environment or Ecology and Conservation Biology from the Bachelor of Science are required to complete additional core subjects, which may extend the duration of your degree. Please refer to the individual major pages for information on core subjects
• **Part-time students completing a major in Civil, Environmental, Materials, Mechanical, Mechatronic or Mining Engineering, and in an approved full-time engineering employment may be exempted from up to three specified subjects.

Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Science who satisfy entry requirements may be eligible to apply for the Bachelor of Science (Honours). See program coordinator for more information.

Compulsory Work Placement / Online Components

Information on academic and English language requirements, as well as eligibility for credit for prior learning, is available from the Course Finder.

A number of the course learning outcomes in each of these degrees complement and consolidate outcomes in the partner degree. Applied across two discipline areas, the outcomes are achieved at a broader and more comprehensive level.

The outcomes, which are common and consolidated in this joint degree, ensure that on successful completion of the course students will be able to:

CLO Description 1 Demonstrate sound disciplinary knowledge 2 Exercise critical judgement in a professional environment. 3 Communicate effectively to a range of audiences through a range of mediums. 4 Demonstrate and draw on disciplinary concepts and skills to solve problems.

Please refer to the Undergraduate Course Handbook page of each individual degree for a comprehensive list of degree course learning outcomes.
