Engineering (BE) + Science (BSc)

Course Code: B1216

This five-year course leads to the award of both a Bachelor of Engineering and a Bachelor of Science. Students will study one of the Engineering majors as described fully under the BE course description and combine this with study for a BSc.

Students can complete any of the Bachelors of Science available at Murdoch, subject to quota, but should note that depending on the combination more than five years of full-time study may be necessary.

This is a very demanding combination of courses and students should be sure that they are able to undertake the load commitment and study level required.
