Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)(Civil) with Bachelor of Finance and Banking
Why combine Civil Engineering with Finance and Banking?
Civil engineers design, build and maintain the infrastructure that underpins modern life. They make sure bridges, roads, railways and water channels meet the needs of our society in a sustainable way.
For those working in the field, financial expertise offers significant benefits, equipping you with in-demand skills to succeed in industry, or pursue your personal business goals.
What will you do?
- Study structural design and mechanics in depth.
- Build skills in geotechnical engineering, construction, and operation systems.
- Undertake practical projects and work on real-world simulations.
- Understand financial modelling and wealth management in depth.
- Study international trade, banking and financial markets.
This is a 5-year double, not combined degree. You’ll graduate with two separate parchments, a greater scope of career prospects and a competitive edge in the job market.
