The Engineering/Commerce double degree is an extended, optional program for engineering students. It is designed to further develop your business skills, giving you an added level of experience to take into the first stage of your engineering career after you graduate. As with any of our engineering degrees, you will graduate as an Engineers Australia accredited professional in your chosen engineering stream. In your first year you will complete the Engineering Foundation Year (EFY). The EFY builds a solid base of the fundamental concepts common to all areas of engineering. The EFY was developed in partnership with industry to create a curriculum that is reflective of engineering practice. To satisfy professional requirements, students must complete at least 12 weeks or equivalent of exposure to professional engineering practice. This requirement can be met by appropriate work experience or through a combination of technical and non-technical activities. Students must demonstrate that they have met these requirements by using a formal Log Book to record their professional experiences during the period of their degree study. You can combine one of the following Engineering streams: Civil and Construction Engineering Chemical Engineering Mechanical Engineering Mining Engineering or Metallurgical Engineering with one of the following commerce Majors: Accounting Economics Finance Management. Other Engineering majors are not available as part of this double degree program. Why study Bachelor of Engineering, Bachelor of Commerce When the job market is competitive, a double degree with Engineering and Commerce can give you an extra edge over other candidates. You should be able to demonstrate a deeper understanding of the business environment. Cut 1.5 years off the time it takes you to do two degrees.
