The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) – Bachelor of Business provides an opportunity for students who have a flair for business, finance, management, marketing, etc to combine their interest with professional engineering studies.
Engineering is vital to solving the world’s big challenges: supporting communities by designing and building livable sustainable cities; creating transport and housing systems; and designing and building telecommunications networks, the internet and computers.
Engineers design systems to ensure ample clean water for the world’s population, to find non-polluting energy sources, to create ways to assist healthy living and ageing, and to advance medical and health technologies.
Engineers are team players and many become CEOs and entrepreneurs; engineering graduates run over 30 percent of the world’s biggest international companies, nearly double the next largest discipline. Learn the fundamentals of engineering, both the technical and interpersonal skills, and apply their knowledge in real situations to prepare students for engineering the future with an internationally accredited UOW engineering degree.
Double degrees are designed to enhance a student’s educational, academic and professional qualifications whilst minimising the costs of their studies.
More information regarding double degree course requirements can be found in UOW’s Policy Guidelines. Students must seek advice and approval from both Faculties before enrolment.
As an engineering student at UOW students can gain credit for relevant work experience, either in Australia or overseas, by participating in UOW’s Professional Options Program. All students undertake practical hands-on experience with industry for 12 weeks prior to the conclusion of their academic studies.
Students work in well designed laboratories and workshops essential to the development of engineering skills. An effective experimental program is also a feature of UOW’s courses.
