Bachelor of Engineering - Mechanical Engineering (Honours) + Bachelor of Business - Management (BH089MEHDD) (079782A):
Mechanical engineers design, analyze and improve products as diverse as refrigerators, washing machines, solar water heaters, pumps, engines, compressors, wind turbines and air-conditioning systems. They apply knowledge of materials, structures, energy and management to the solution of technical problems.
Management involves the planning, organizing, coordination and direction of the resources of organizations. Managers draw on technical skills as diverse as accounting and organizational behavior and build on personal abilities including analysis and leadership.
Many engineers quickly move into positions of management within organizations. This double degree will give students an advantage, allowing them to advance into positions of responsibility and influence. A business degree will prepare students to operate in complex organizational and economic systems, often associated with large engineering projects.
As part of this degree students will have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design-and-build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge - a humanitarian-focused course offered in all the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology engineering degrees.
Please note that applicants from some countries will be required to pay a non-refundable application fee. The fee will go towards the tuition deposit for any students who enroll.
