The Bachelor of Engineering (Civil) (Honours)/Bachelor of Business combines technical expertise in an engineering field of your choice with the creative thinking and behaviours needed to become innovative in business practice. Complete core units in your first year to assist in selecting majors in engineering and business. Typically, business studies commence in the third year of the program. The two accredited business majors are Finance and Management.

Course structure: For the completion, students are required to complete a total of 40 units (500 credit points) consisting of:

12 Engineering core units of study (150 credit points)
16 units of study from Civil Major (200 credit points)
4 Business core units of study (50 credit points)
8 Finance OR Management units of study (100 credits points)
1 compulsory, not-for-credit units (0 credit points)

Career opportunities: Graduates of this double degree program may select paths from either Civil Engineering or Business, or both discipline areas. Graduates will have a relatively greater advantage and flexibility in the market place compared to those with single discipline degrees.

Graduates are eligible to be registered as Graduate Engineers with Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) and to apply for graduate membership with Engineers Australia (EA).

Key Information due to COVID-19: Swinburne will continue with its fully online learning for our students. Online learning and assessments continues to be the primary mode of delivery for the majority of the learning activities.
