Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Material Science) / Bachelor of Engineering Science
This double degree program allows you to earn two degrees after five years of successful study: a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Materials Science and Engineering and a Bachelor of Engineering Science in Chemical Engineering. The program is ideal if you wish to pursue a career in the complementary disciplines of materials science and engineering and chemical engineering. Where materials engineers concern themselves mainly with the underlying science of high-performance materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers and composites, chemical engineers focus on turning raw materials into useful, marketable products from fertilisers, drugs, and plastics, to paper, paint, and food. By studying both degrees, you will learn foundational theory and practical skills that will put you at the forefront of development and innovation.
