Bachelor of Engineering - Bachelor of Commerce
The Faculties of Commerce 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 Commerce and Bachelor of Engineering. These courses provide education in the discipline of Engineering together with a major study in Commerce, to broaden the knowledge base of the graduate, thereby enhancing career prospects. The Engineering courses are accredited by Engineers Australia.
Requirements 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 Commerce or Bachelor of Engineering, whichever is the higher. English and Mathematics pre-requisites for both degrees must be satisfied.
Course Requirements - Bachelor of Commerce
Candidates are required to complete core subjects and subjects which satisfy the requirements of one of the Commerce majors. Candidates can choose between a number of major and minor combinations. All students must seek advice and approval from the Sub Dean and relevant Head of School before enrolment. Students should be aware that it may not be possible to complete all Commerce programs with the usual 264 credit points required for a double degree.

ENGG361 and ENGG461 should be replaced by Engineering electives, i.e. those with an Engineering degree prefix. Students are not permitted to use Commerce subjects to substitute for Engineering electives.
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 Sub Dean.
