COURSE DESCRIPTION
Highlights
- Enhance your engineering capabilities with skills in mathematical modelling, analysis and design to help solve complex problems.
- Complete 2 degrees in 5 years full-time.
- Choose from any engineering major: civil, computer and software systems, electrical, electrical and aerospace, mechatronics, mechanical, medical or chemical process engineering.
- Our engineering degree includes honours-level content integrated throughout the course.
- Specialise in applied and computational mathematics, operations research or statistics.
Combine valuable skills and knowledge with the Bachelor of Engineeing (Honours)/Bachelor of Mathematics degree. You will complete two degrees in 5 years full time.
The majors available in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) include:
- civil
- computer and software systems
- electrical
- electrical and aerospace
- mechatronics
- mechanical
- medical
- chemical process.
You can choose from applied and computational mathematics, operations research or statistics in the Bachelor of Mathematics.
Our engineering courses, whether a single or double degree, now include honours-level content integrated throughout the course. A bachelor honours degree is a higher-level qualification than a bachelor degree, and along with the advanced knowledge and skills, it will benefit you in your professional career or future research and study. The duration of the degree remains unchanged: a single engineering honours degree is a four-year program, and a double degree is five years.
Why choose this course?
As an engineering graduate, you will be technically competent in the fundamentals of mathematics, science, and engineering, with advanced knowledge in at least one specialist area of engineering. The course includes a design stream as well as a capstone project where you will design and build an engineering artefact using an advanced level of skill while developing your professional capability as an engineer. The course you help you to develop an awareness of the important social, environmental and economic impacts of your engineering decisions, and prepare you for practice as internationally recognised professional engineer.
The Bachelor of Mathematics course provides a modern and rigorous training in mathematics to prepare you for both graduate careers in industry and government as well as for honours and postgraduate research work. You will be able to clearly define a path of study associated with different graduate outcomes in order to meet the wide range of employment possibilities open to you as an mathematics graduate. You also have the option to include a second major and minor options in mathematics and statistics. There is currently a shortage of mathematical scientists in Australia and abroad, and this course will give you the essential grounding in applied mathematics, computational methods, decision science and statistics, to help you forge a successful career in the field.
Careers and outcomes
This double degree offers you a wide range of career opportunities.
Graduates can work as professional engineers in a variety of discipline areas. Depending on your area of engineering specialisation, you could work with construction companies, environmental specialists, computer manufacturers, communications and digital signal processing products manufacturers, cable and network equipment manufacturers, defence agencies, electricity utilities, mining industry, telecommunications companies, automated systems and robotics, Civil Aviation Safety Authority, or in power generation and supply.
