Overview

Through this combined degree program students can combine the concepts of chemical engineering with arts. The chemical engineering program will provide students with a background in the physical sciences, chemical engineering core disciplines, integrated design skills and research training. All engineering students will complete a common first year before branching out into their disciplines, majors and/or a choice of thematic minors. Students will also have the opportunity to choose from a range of engineering thematic majors and minors. In the arts program, students are able to specialise in areas of their choice by taking a ‘major’ (from one of 25 majors) and potentially a ‘minor’ (from a range of areas).

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) Chemical  and Bachelor of Arts is an AQF Level 08 qualification with a standard full-time duration of 5 years.

This program is accredited by Engineers Australia, and graduates of the program qualify for professional membership of Engineers Australia and the Institute of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) (UK)
