Engineering conjoint degrees

22 November 2023

Merge your Bachelor of Engineering with Honours degree with another degree so you can combine subjects from other areas and graduate sooner.

HOW TO APPLY

A conjoint degree merges our Bachelor of Engineering with Honours degree with another bachelor’s degree from UC, allowing you to study majors from different areas within a shorter timeframe.

These conjoint degree combinations are tailored to meet industry needs and minimize timetable clashes, providing an accelerated path for high achievers to earn two degrees simultaneously in just 5 years.

Why an Engineering Conjoint Degree with UC?
  • Structured for success: clearly defined structures to enhance your student experience and carefully align learning outcomes from two different degrees. Clashes between classes are minimised.
  • Designed for flexibility: designed to teach two different degrees in parallel, providing choice for you to smoothly exit into either degree if you change your mind.
  • Industry-aligned: each tailored conjoint combination is designed for an existing industry gap, identified by our industry advisory boards to ensure that you gain uniquely combined skillsets that are in high demand.
  • Global accreditation: each major combination is a Washington Accord accredited Engineering degree with worldwide recognition in key employment areas.

 

Engineering Conjoint Degree Options

Engineering conjoint degrees require an overall combined 675 points, with at least 405 points from the Engineering degree and at least 255 points from the other (plus another 15 points for either degree), and at least a minimum sustained Grade Point Average of B.

 

The conjoint degree combinations currently offered at UC are:

Engineering and Business skills are closely linked in the industry, and UC offers a unique opportunity to combine this expertise by introducing a conjoint programme that combines specific skill sets between the two areas.

Blend engineering and product design to attain the technical and design skills to take great ideas from conception through to a polished final product that would be attractive to the market. Within this programme, UC presents two distinct pathways:
