Bachelor of Engineering (Civil and Structural) with Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Sciences
B.E(Ci)/Ma
|
| Location: | North Terrace Campus |
| Duration: | 5 years
(full-time or
part-time equivalent)
|
| Degree/Award: | Double Degree |
This double degree program provides students with the flexibility to study Civil and Structural Engineering and a range of mathematics, statistics and computer science courses.
Civil and structural engineers create and maintain much of the physical infrastructure of society while managing and conserving natural resources. The goal is to do this in a sustainable manner. This ensures that we can provide adequate infrastructure and natural resources for current generations, without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same. Civil engineers are responsible for the planning, design and construction of bridges, buildings, structures, roads, water supply, dams, pipelines, sewerage treatment facilities, drainage, pollution control equipment, and coastal management facilities.
The program has an emphasis on engineering problem solving and design and analysis using modern, computer-based methods. The first and second years of the program develop a knowledge of maths and science courses, with fundamental engineering and design courses. Third and fourth years include professional engineering courses, specialisations, communication and management courses and project work within the main areas of structural, geotechnical and water engineering.

++ A major in Computer Science requires this 21 units to contain a 3 unit Level II Computer Science course, and a further 12 units of Level III Computer Science courses of which one Level III course must be Software Engineering & Project. |
| Level V |
|
Semester 1
Semester 2
* Students who are not selected for Honours will be required to complete 2 additional final year specialisation courses instead of the Research Project. |
| Specialisations |
|
Students should take at least two courses from the one group. The remaining may be chosen from any group. Alternatively, students may take up to 3 units of Level II or III courses offered by the School of Mathematical Sciences. In special circumstances other combinations of specialisation courses may be acceptable but must be approved by the Head of School. Group I: Structural Engineering
Group II: Geotechnical Engineering
Group III: Water Engineering
Group IV: Management Engineering
Group V: Environmental Engineering

The double degree combination provides future engineers with the skills base they will need in management positions, graduates of this program can seek employment in fields relevant to Civil and Structural Engineering and Mathematical and Computer Sciences.
Many graduates choose to combined their knowledge and background from both programs, leading them to excel in a variety of managerial positions
