Bachelor of Engineering/Bachelor of Technology (Industrial Design)


General information

Clayton/Caulfield campus
The Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of Art and Design offers a double-degree course which qualifies students for the degrees of Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Technology (Industrial Design).
The program was established to enable students with creative design abilities to pursue their interests in both engineering design and industrial design, with a focus on high-technology consumer product design.

Course structure

There is a common technological core for both the four-year BE and the three-year BTech (IndDes) courses offered separately at Monash University.
The amalgamation of the common cores means that the five-year double-degree course still achieves the full educational objectives of both courses. Consequently, graduates will be able to synthesise advanced technology and product quality criteria, including economics, aesthetics/ semantics and environmental factors, in the creation of new consumer products as well as being able to exercise leadership and facilitate cooperation of professionals in product development teams.

Application procedure for new students

The BE/BTech (Industrial Design) double-degree program commences at level one and is of five years duration on a full-time basis. Entry to the course is by application through the Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre (VTAC); application and VCE prerequisite subject details are given in the VTAC Guide to University Courses.
The course operates on campus at Clayton (Engineering) and Caulfield (Industrial Design) The detailed course structure is set out in the Engineering section of the handbook.
