Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)(Petroleum) with Bachelor of Science

Why combine Petroleum Engineering with Science?  

Petroleum is one of the highest paid engineering fields internationally, with significant demand for qualified graduates. Petroleum engineers provide oil and gas inefficient, safe, and environmentally responsible ways.

This degree enables an additional geology and geophysics focus to complement the core engineering foundations.

What will you do?

  • Learn about the oil and gas industry and petroleum engineering.
  • Explore approaches to business management.
  • Develop technical knowledge and network with potential employers.
  • Pursue science majors in Geology and Geophysics and Applied Biology.
  • Complete an eight-week practical engineering experience.
  • Undertake interactive projects and field trips.

This is a 5-year double, not combined degree. You’ll graduate with two separate parchments, a greater scope of career prospects and a competitive edge in the job market.
