Bachelor of Engineering Science

Western Sydney University

About

The Bachelor of Engineering Science is a three year degree program with common first year structure.

Students have the opportunity to focus on a discipline area by selecting a key program in Civil, Construction, Electrical, Mechanical, and Robotic & Mechatronic engineering.

The program has been developed with the view of enabling graduates to practice as an engineering technologist in their chosen field.

The three year Bachelor of Engineering Science program may be used as a pathway to the four year Bachelor of Engineering program that meets Engineers Australia professional accreditation requirements;

an academic performance criteria will be the eligibility criteria for such transfer.
