Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)/Bachelor of Information Technology

HighlightsDevelop the skills to become an engineer and an information technology professional, working in the development and application of consumer electronics, and computer and electrical systems.Complete 2 degrees in 5 years full-time.Choose from any engineering major - chemical and sustainable process, civil, computer and software systems, electrical, electrical and aerospace, electrical and renewable power, mechatronics, mechanical, or medical engineering.QUT's engineering degree includes honours-level content integrated throughout the course.Specialise in computer science or information systems, with the Information Technology course.Graduate eligible for Engineers Australia (EA) and Australian Computer Society (ACS) membership and with a highly regarded and internationally-recognised qualification.Why choose this courseAs an engineering graduate of this degree, you will be technically competent in the fundamentals of mathematics, science and engineering, with advanced knowledge in at least one specialist area of engineering. The course includes a design stream as well as a capstone project where you will design and build engineering artefact, using your knowledge and skills. Through the course, you will develop an awareness of the important social, environmental and economic impacts of your engineering decisions, and you will be prepared for practice as internationally recognised professional engineers.As an information technology graduate of this degree, you will be equipped to build and apply creative, innovative IT solutions across diverse industries. A hands-on, real-world based curriculum gives you the opportunity to explore a wide range of areas within the two strands of this degree and gain deep understanding within your chosen area of study from either information systems or computer science. You learn to harness your creativity and people skills to maximise the impact of your technical know-how in the IT marketplace. It positions you for a challenging and rewarding career within the global economy.Careers and outcomesThis double degree offers you a wide range of career opportunities.Graduates can work as professional engineers in a variety of discipline areas. Depending on your area of engineering specialisation, you could work with construction companies, environmental specialists, computer manufacturers, communications and digital signal processing product manufacturers, cable and network equipment manufacturers, defence agencies, electricity utilities, mining industry, telecommunications companies, automated systems and robotics, or the power generation and supply industry.Many graduates find employment in areas such as communications, railways, electricity supply, hospitals, transport and in organisations that are using electronics, electronic systems, computers and microprocessors to monitor, control, communicate and optimise processes and production, in areas such as mining and aerospace.Possible careersAerospace avionics engineerBioengineerBiomechanical engineerBiomedical engineerCivil engineerComputer systems engineerElectrical engineerEngineerEnvironmental engineerInformation security specialistMechanical engineerMedical engineerSoftware engineerTransport engineering specialist
