Why choose an Engineering Conjoint at UC?
听
Broader skills = better engineers听
The best engineers think beyond their field. With a conjoint degree, you鈥檒l gain skills from a second discipline like business, science, product design, health or arts and learn to view and attack complex engineering challenges from multiple perspectives.
Built to make an impact听
Engineers create the biggest change where their work intersects with other fields. That鈥檚 where conjoint graduates shine - bridging gaps, collaborating across teams, and leading innovation.
Designed for global careers听
Our Engineering degrees are accredited under the Washington Accord, giving you global recognition and a strong foundation for an international career.
Structured for success听
Each conjoint pathway is carefully planned. You鈥檒l know exactly which courses to take each semester over the five years. Class clashes are minimised, and your final Honours project will bring together both disciplines in one powerful piece of work.
A qualification for high achievers听
Conjoint degrees are fast-paced, challenging, and designed for high-achieving students. You鈥檒l complete two degrees in five years and graduate with a rare and highly valuable skill set. If you do change your mind, we ensure a smooth exit into either one of the two degrees. For students who want to take a bit more time with their study, they can also reduce the workload and stretch out the degree beyond 5 years. This would usually add approximately an extra 6 to 12 months of study to the timeline.
Industry-Backed. Globally Relevant.
We work closely with industry to shape each conjoint offering, so your qualification aligns with real-world demand. Feedback from employers include:
"Graduates with an engineering conjoint will be in high demand in the consultancy and professional services space, simply for the broader mindset and familiarity with unusual problems they bring."
"If I saw a candidate with a conjoint BE/BA, I鈥檇 get them in for an interview in a heartbeat. It tells me they have significant potential, and a worldview beyond the standard engineering mindset."
"High achievers who鈥檝e studied across disciplines bring fresh perspectives. That鈥檚 what we need in today鈥檚 design and engineering environments."
