Overview

Through this double degree program students can combine the concepts of chemical engineering with finance. 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. The finance and banking program introduces students to the global and institutional aspects of our financial and banking systems.

The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Chemical) with Bachelor of Finance and Banking 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).
