Year 2 This combined degree provides students with the opportunity to
complete the core and major components of both the engineering and
Autumn semester business degrees. This course is essentially the same as the Bachelor of
48240 Design Fundamentals 6cp Engineering Bachelor of Business (C10065) (see page 148) combined
48331 Mechanics of Solids 6cp degree except for the additional requirement of two internships and
48221 Engineering Computations 6cp the completion of the engineering practice program. The engineering
48621 Manufacturing Engineering 6cp practice program is integrated throughout the course.
Spring semester For graduates choosing to practise as engineers, the business
48600 Mechanical Design 1 6cp knowledge is invaluable in providing a sound foundation for
48640 Machine Dynamics 6cp entrepreneurial initiatives and the commercialisation of engineering
48641 Fluid Mechanics 6cp innovations.
48642 Strength of Engineering Materials 6cp This combined degree can be completed in less time than would be
