Bachelor of Commerce / Bachelor of Engineering for 2010

Course overview

For engineers seeking to succeed in the business world, engineering with commerce has always been the power combination. Companies looking for employees with business know-how and the ability to understand technological issues seek out Monash graduates with this background.

This course is for those who wish to develop a greater understanding of the economic, social, organisational and managerial aspects of an engineering career.

Career outlook

Australia is currently experiencing a shortage of qualified engineers and graduates are in high demand. Combing an engineering degree with a commerce degree further enhances a graduate's opportunities and will prepare them for project leadership in engineering fields such as health, built and natural environments, medicine and aerospace.
