Complement your technical electrical engineering skills with business acumen with the Bachelor of Electrical and Electronic Engineering/Bachelor of Business. You will learn how to manage people and industry-specific projects and prepare yourself for a leadership role with this unique package of skills.
Electrical engineers design and build systems and machines. These machines automate, control, generate, transmit, and measure electrical energy essential to modern life. You will be able to use this understanding to explore business opportunities in fields like automation and control or robotics or develop technology to help streamline processes we use in everyday life.
Our position as one of the most highly ranked engineering faculties in Australia is recognised through our associate membership of the Group of Eight.
One of only three Australian member institutions of the Global Engineering Education Exchange Program.
Tackle real-world challenges through professional practice courses and diversify your skills through four elective pathway courses.
You will build critical technical and engineering skills in:
Connect with industry through guest lectures and interdisciplinary projects solving real world problems with electrical and electronic engineering solutions. Gain invaluable practical experience through your industry placement.
Become job-ready through our professional practice courses. You'll learn to tackle ‘wicked problems’ and develop essential workplace skills in finance, project management, sustainability, communication and entrepreneurism.
