• Course description arrow_forward_ios

  Targeted at aspiring professionals, this combined degree equips you with expertise in both engineering and business, streamlining your path to leadership in technology innovation and commercialisation.

  Choose this course to become a dual expert, integrating engineering expertise with business acumen. Stand out with a unique skill set that blends technical innovation with strategic business practices.

  You will gain a comprehensive understanding of how engineering solutions can be transformed into market-ready products, alongside the business strategies to make it happen. Your learning will encompass practical management techniques and entrepreneurial skills, essential for future leadership roles.

  Practice-based, industry-connected teaching and learning combines academic study with hands-on skills. Teaching methods are interactive and applied, focusing on real-world scenarios to ensure you can confidently apply your knowledge in a professional setting.

  This combined degree is offered jointly by the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology and the UTS Business School.

  Students learn how engineering and business fit together, how to manage technology and innovation, and how to commercialise engineering innovations. For graduates choosing to practise as engineers, the business knowledge gained in this course will prove invaluable in providing a sound foundation for entrepreneurial initiatives and the commercialisation of engineering innovations.

• Transdisciplinary Electives at UTS arrow_forward_ios

  Employers tell us the skills our graduates acquire from undertaking a Transdisciplinary Elective sets them apart from the crowd. That’s why we have embedded this program into every undergraduate degree.

  All you need to do is choose the Elective that inspires you the most.

  Transdisciplinary Electives integrate knowledge from multiple disciplines, allowing you to approach complex problems from a range of perspectives.

  By combining methods and insights from various disciplines, transdisciplinary learning often leads to breakthrough ideas and creative innovations that may not be possible within the confines of a single discipline.

  If you find yourself rapt by the world of innovation – you can pair your core degree with a Diploma in Innovation, graduating with two qualifications in the same timeframe. 

  In both instances, you’ll work on a real-world challenge presented by an industry partner organisation – partners who often create career pathways for our graduates.

  * Excludes students concurrently enrolled in the Bachelor of Creative Intelligence and Innovation.
