NOTE: This course has been updated - please refer to the Undergraduate handbook change register for details. This course entry should be read in conjunction with information provided in the 'Faculty information' section of this Handbook by the Faculty of Business and Economics
Notes
DescriptionThis double-degree course is intended for potential engineers who wish to become more aware of economic, social, organisational and managerial aspects of the engineering profession. ObjectivesRefer to the two single degree entries at http://monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/courses/0179.html and http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/courses/0032.html. Vacation work/industrial experienceIn order to fulfil the requirements of the various degree regulations and Engineers Australia, all engineering students must complete 12 weeks of approved engineering work experience and submit a report on that work. Such work is normally in the vacations between second and third years and/or between third and fourth years (but may also be taken between first and second years). Students who have completed all academic requirements for their degrees are not eligible to graduate until this work experience has been completed and a satisfactory report submitted. Professional recognitionThis degree is recognised by the following legal entities:
Professional recognition may be dependent upon work experience requirements and the correct choice of units. For further details visit http://www.buseco.monash.edu.au/asg/cds/publications/professional-recognition.html and http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/2010handbooks/undergrad/eng-03.html.
