Note: There will be no further enrolments into this program from 2007. This program has been replaced by CG16. Information on these pages is provided for continuing students only. Students enrolled in CU28 should seek advice regarding their study progression.

 

This program develops skills and knowledge to work at an engineering technologist/business manager level.  The double degree program equips you to apply knowledge and skills in analysis, scientific, technological and business administration principles and to exhibit management skills and social responsibility to existing and new technology and business areas. (See the CQU Glossary for definition of a double degree, available from http://www.cqu.edu.au/glossary).

 

 All students (except graduate entry students) entering the program undertake a common first year of study.  Courses studied include mathematics, computing, science, marketing, materials, graphics, and communication.  Students are then counselled to enrol in a program of study in one of the nominal engineering disciplines (streams) and business plan programs in second year.  See CQ68 for streams of specialisation offered.

 

Some courses may be available only for external study.

 

 

 

Students must complete 32 courses/192 units of credit.

 

All students (except advanced standing entry students who enter nominally at later levels) entering the program will undertake a common first year.  Students will then be counselled to enrol in a program of study in one of the nominal engineering technology and business plans in the second year.  Alternative programs may be available for students with full-time or part-time employment. Students who wish to vary their program must apply in writing to the Faculty, stating their career goals and the alternative courses in which they wish to enrol.

 

In each academic year, full-time students are required to complete 8 courses from a list of courses available at CQU (each of which will nominally be allocated 6 units of credit).  Part-time students may select between 2 and 5 courses.  Alternatively, exemptions from courses may be sought, based on RPL/RCC (See section on Credit Transfer).  Thus, each year of equivalent full-time study in the proposed program has a credit point value of 48 units of credit.

 

NOTE that engineering courses in second and third year are offered in external mode only.
