Overview / Course Aims
The Faculties of Informatics and Engineering offer double degree courses over five years of full-time or eight years of part-time study, leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Mathematics.
These courses provide education in the discipline of Engineering, together with a major study in Mathematics to broaden the knowledge base of the graduate, thereby enhancing career prospects. The Engineering courses are accredited by Engineers Australia.
Requirement for admission to the double degree is a UAI or equivalent which is equal to or greater than the rank required for admission to the Bachelor of Mathematics or Bachelor of Engineering, whichever is the higher. English and Mathematics pre-requisites for both degrees must be satisfied.
Entry Requirements/Assumed Knowledge
An approximate ATAR of 90 is required for entry to this degree. International students are required to have a minimum overall IELTS score of 6 (Reading: 6 Writing: 6 Speaking: 6 Listening: 6). Assumed knowledge: Any two units of English plus Mathematics. Recommended Studies: Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics Ext. 1.
Course Requirements - Bachelor of Mathematics
Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Mathematics must satisfactorily complete requirements 1 to 9, excluding 5, of the Bachelor of Mathematics course requirements, including no more than 60 credit points at 100- level.
Course Requirements - Bachelor of Engineering
Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Engineering must complete a total of 192 credit points. Of the 192 credit points, 174 credit points must be Engineering subjects taken from the following:
Bachelor of Engineering - Core Subjects
plus the subjects leading to one of these Engineering degrees:
Bachelor of Engineering - Civil Engineering
Bachelor of Engineering - Environmental Engineering
Bachelor of Engineering - Materials Engineering
Bachelor of Engineering - Mechanical Engineering
Bachelor of Engineering - Mechatronic Engineering
Bachelor of Engineering - Mining Engineering
A candidate must complete at least 12 weeks of approved professional engineering experience during the course. A part-time candidate in approved full-time engineering employment may be exempted from up to three specified subjects in accordance with the provisions of the Professional Options subjects, thereby enabling the joint course to be completed in a shorter time.
All students must discuss their Engineering program with the relevant Sub Dean.
