Bachelor of Science / Bachelor of Engineering for 2010

Course overview

This course combines studies in engineering with a science degree. Students study the core aspects of the engineering discipline and complete two major sequences in different science disciplines, or a double major and a minor sequence in a different science discipline. Core science sequences can be chosen from astrophysics, mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, earth sciences or computer science. In the double-degree program, restrictions have been imposed on the number of prescribed units to ensure that students pursue studies that suitably equip them for subsequent years of study in engineering and science. Monash offers the Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Engineering with chemical, civil, electrical and computer systems, materials and mechanical engineering.* A biomedical engineering stream is available with electrical and computer systems, materials or mechanical engineering. *The program does not have a common first year - you choose your engineering discipline at the time of enrolment.

Career outlook

As students complete two degrees, they have options in both fields on graduation. For details, refer to the information for the individual degrees outlined in the relevant sections.
