You can enrich your degree to hone your academic and professional skills with a range of flagship rich educational experiences. These flagship rich educational experience units may be credited in place of your general electives in your first or second year if you have space. There are both 6 and 12 credit point unit options available.*

*If you are enrolled in a double degree there may be space available in the non-engineering side of your double degree to undertake flagship rich educational experiences. For information on eligible double degree combinations please see Flagship Rich Educational Experiences.

Engineering with commerce is a powerful combination. Many engineers work in areas outside of engineering, such as management, banking and consulting, and many go on to become CEOs of major corporations. Almost 20 percent of CEOs of ASX100 companies are engineers.

The dual degree includes an engineering common first year, allowing you time to learn about engineering and its various branches before choosing an area of specialisation. In this year, you will learn to apply your developing mathematics and science knowledge to real-life problems.

You will also select your commerce major after sampling from across the main disciplines. This could be economics, finance, management, marketing or sustainability, or another discipline that aligns with your career aspirations.

The design and systems thinking provided through engineering, together with analytic skills and a practical focus is an unbeatable combination. Our graduates are professionals who know how to get things done.

This double degree will develop your business acumen and complement the qualities that make engineers ideal business leaders: detail-oriented, analytical, creative, versatile, visionary and innovative. 

Graduates will be prepared for project leadership in fields such as health, built and natural environments, medicine and aerospace. The education you will receive means you will be able to draw on cross-disciplinary perspectives to thrive in a broad range of settings.
